Zarama (band)

Zarama is a Spanish music band in the Basque Radical Rock genre formed in 1977.^[1] The band, spearheaded by Roberto Moso, got together at Santurtzi, (Biscay, Basque Autonomous Community, Spain), combining for the first time punk rock and Basque language, a cultural mingling fraught with difficulties at the time.^[2]

After its first steps during a period in which local punk music cohabited in the Basque Country with socio-political turmoil and violence,^[3] the band transitioned towards more sophisticated and cleaner sounds and more personal lyrics, especially after 1989 (album Bostak bat).^[2] It made a comeback in 2009, following a hiatus of several years. By then, it had released 5 LP albums and 2 EPs.^[1]
