The band presented the album on a series of concerts, mainly in Belgrade's Club of Technical Sciences Students. The album featured Viktorija Jevtić on vocals, Sava Đustibek on guitar, Predrag Guculj on bass guitar and Lusila Gluščević on flute. Among the covers appeared the songs "The Wild Rover", "The Irish Rover", "Weela Weela Walya", "All For Me Grog", "Poor Old Dicey Riley", football chant "A Grand Old Team", and others. The band released their debut self-titled album in 1994, featuring cover versions of twelve Irish folk songs. Soon the band was joined by Vladan Jovković on guitar and Dejan Jevtović on bass. At the end of the following year, vocalist Aleksandar Petrović, also known as Aca Celtic, joined the band and they started performing more often. The band had their first official public appearance on Saint Patrick's day in 1992, at the British Council. Even though he had partially managed to fulfill this idea through some of the songs recorded by Roze Poze, in 1992 he took up playing the accordion and, with Ana Đokić (violin) and Dejan Lalić (mandolin, banjo, tin whistles), formed a band which performed occasionally at clubs. Band history: 1990sĭuring the mid-1980s, Dušan Živanović, drummer of the garage rock band Roze Poze ( Pink Poses), wanted to form a band which would perform cover versions of Irish folk songs. The band also traditionally performs on the Belgrade Beer Fest, and is the only act that has appeared on every Belgrade Beer Fest so far (except Belgrade Beer Fest 2004, when a part of the program was cancelled due to technical problems).

All their lyrics are in English, but the group has composed some purely instrumental songs as well. The band started their career performing traditional Irish songs and, gradually, introduced more and more of their own material (lyrics mostly written by the band's frontman Aleksandar "Aca Celtic" Petrović, music mostly written by band's violinist Ana Đokić). Despite their uncharacteristic genre in their home country, the band is one of the top acts of the Serbian rock scene and has influenced several younger Serbian bands, most notably Irish Stew of Sindidun and Tir na n'Og. Orthodox Celts is a Serbian band formed in Belgrade in 1992 which plays Irish folk music combined with rock elements.
