BIX is a rock band from Lithuania.[1] The band was formed in 1987 in Šiauliai and in a few months became a cult band. After a period of intensive touring throughout Europe and the US they were the most experienced Baltic band, and probably the best known in the West. Recording never was a strong side of BIX since they were a 'live' band.
Their style of music may be described as post-punk with the elements of ska, Latin American music and funk.
