Davorin Bogović

Davorin Bogović (born 23 March 1960) is a Croatian and Yugoslav rock musician. Best known as the original vocalist of the popular band Prljavo Kazalište, Bogović is often described as one of the most notable figures of the Yugoslav new wave scene.

Bogović fronted Prljavo Kazalište during their initial punk rock and new wave phase, recording the albums Prljavo Kazalište (1979) and Crno bijeli svijet (1980) with the group. He was excluded from the band prior to recording of their third studio album, but returned to the group for their fourth album Korak od sna (1983). After leaving Prljavo Kazalište, Bogović has released two solo albums, acted in theatre and on television and collaborated with a number of prominent music artists, also making guest appearances on Prljavo Kazalište albums and concerts on several occasions. In 2022, after a fallout between last two remaining original members of Prljavo Kazalište, guitarist Jasenko Houra and drummer Tihomir Fileš, Fileš left the group to form his own faction, fronted by Bogović and also named Prljavo Kazalište. With the group, Bogović recorded their 2023 album Underground.
