Ambasadori

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ambasadori were a Yugoslav pop band from Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina active from 1968 until 1980. The band is most notable for representing Yugoslavia at the Eurovision Song Contest, and for having two future pop stars Zdravko Čolić and Hari Varešanović as its one time singers.

Ambasadori were founded in 1968 by guitarist Slobodan Vujović who was the band's driving force and main songwriter all throughout their run. Right from the getgo, most of their activity centered around competitive pop schlager festivals throughout SFR Yugoslavia. They soon started putting out their competitive festival entries as two-side singles. The band's debut release "Placem za tvojim usnama" / "Zapjevaj" came out in 1971 for Beograd disk label.

Ambasadori took part in 1976 Eurovision Song Contest, finishing last.
