This article is about the Lithuanian rock group. For other meanings, see Bix (disambiguation).
BIX is one of the oldest and famous rock bands in Lithuania. They got together in 1987 in Šiauliai and in a few months became a cult band. After a period of intensive touring throughout Europe and the US they were the most experienced Baltic band, and probably the best known in the West. Recording never was a strong side of BIX since they were a 'live' band.
Their style of music may be described as post-punk with the elements of ska, Latin American music and funk.
