RUŽ was
formed in 1982, in Beograd, and went through numerous lineup changes before a steady lineup was formed: Vuk Rosandić (vocals), twin broters Miloš (guitar) and Marko Kozić (bass guitar), and Zoran Tomašević "Toma" (drums). Soon, the record label Jugoton showed interest in signing a contract with them. Ruž appeared on the scene when the popularity of teen idols Plavi Orkestar declined, and Ruž won part of Plavi Orkestar's audience. Ruž's debut album "Još jedan ples", released in 1988, became a golden record. The album was produced by Ivan Fece "Firči", and featured Marina Perazić on backing vocals, Jovan Maljoković on saxophone, Aleksandar Dujin on keyboards, and Zoran Bulatović "Bale" on bass guitar. All the songs on the album were composed by Miloš Kozić, and the album's main hit was "Zubarka". The band's second album, "Noćno kupanje", released in 1990, should have been released by Jugoton, but the band moved to PGP-RTB because of the tensed situation in the country. The album was produced by Đorđe Petrović, and featured Dragan Jovanović on guitar, Feldi Jen on saxophone, Szabo Robert on banjo and harmonica and Kristina and Aleksandra Kovač on backing vocals. "Noćno kupanje" brought hits "Nemica" and "Amerikanka". The band saw huge success with the album and became teen idols over night. With the concert at Beograd's Sajmište the band caused hysteria among teenage girls. The band held a tour across Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Macedonia, during which they played about 120 concerts. In 1991, at the Beograd Spring Festival, they performed a cover of Pro Arte song "Jedna mala plava. As Yugoslav Wars began, Vuk Rosandić moved to London, and later to the United States.
