Biography
The band was formed by three high school friends: Petar Mladenovski (frontman and bass guitar), Boris Minov (guitar) and Zoran Žežov (drums) in the early 1990s, starting with a mixture of ska and hardcore punk music.
After several personal changes, today the six-member band also features a three-piece horn section consisting of Sime Zlatkov (saxophone), Aleksandar Spasovski (trumpet), Branko Ilievski (trombone) and DJ Goce Lalkovski as well as drums and percussion played by Darko Popov-Daro.

Superhiks shared stages with many world-famous acts such as: Manu Chao and Radio Bemba, Fun Lovin Criminals, Fishbone, Tito and Tarantula, Henry Rollins, Rico Rodriguez, H-Block, Faith No More, Green Day, House Of Pain, Inner Circle, Zvonko Bogdan and many others.

The band's debut release, Čekaj be vikam, kade be malku (Wait a Second…) was released on the Lithium Records label in 2000 and received radio air and TV play on all commercial stations nationwide.
