Biography

As a teenager he was under a strong influence of the hippie movement. He started performing in parks and on the beaches on the Adriatic coast, playing rock hits on acoustic guitar and harmonica. He had his first public performance at movie festival in Niš. In 1974 he performed at Omladinski festival in Subotica. He performed at Belgrade spring festival, and started writing music for plays. He wrote music for Treća polovina thetare. He started playing with the band Dva Lustera, and on the 11th of April 1977 they had a concert in People's Theatre in Niš.

Soon they changed name to Galija. Two years later they released their debut album Prva plovidba ("The first sail"), with Nenad Milosavljević's brother Predrag Milosavljević as the new member of the band. The band released fourteen studio albums and became a mainstay on the rock scenes of the former Yugoslavia and Serbia. During the 1990s Galija and Nenad Milosavljević were related with Socialist Party of Serbia and its former regime.
