THE CHWEGER - Fućkam/The WhistlerThe song 'Fućkam/The Whistler' is from The Chweger's second album 'Mir' (2012). The Whistler: Alessandro Alessandroni. Urban cowboy: Alen Liverić. Video by Radislav Jovanov Gonzo. Edited by Anita Jovanov. The Chweger was established in 1997 in Pula, Croatia. The name derives from a local game, which could be described as something like a 'knock(flick)-on-the-head' – an important skill when the members were kids. The first album 'The Chweger' (2007) was recorded by Mauricio Ferlin, Alen Rosanda, Mauro Maretić, Dejan Pavlinović and Zoran Angeleski, and it contains songs from a 10-year-long period, recorded during 2005 and 2006. After their highly acclaimed debut, The Chweger released their second album ‘Mir’ in October 2012 with their new vocalist Maja Griparić, and with many guest appearances, such as the legendary whistler from Sergio Leone's spaghetti westerns Alessandro Alessandroni. The album was recorded in Studio Partyzan in Pula, produced by Edi Cukerić and mastered in London by Streaky Gee. The new album introduces new sound elements. The lyrics are in Croatian, English, French and German. The word 'mir' means 'peace' in Croatian, whereas it is 'earth' in Russian. Contact : thechweger@gmail.com Homepage: chweger.com/en/
