Zoran Kostić Cane

Zoran Kostić (Serbian Cyrillic :Зоран Костић; born August 17, 1964 in Belgrade) widely known by his nickname Cane (IPA: [tsanɛ]) is the vocalist for Serbian punk group Partibrejkers.

Early years

Born to a working class family, Cane exhibited rebellious tendencies early in life, and seguéd easily into the role of a punk band frontman. He founded his first band in 1979 at the age of 15—a group called Kopilad (Bastards). In 1980, he played with Urbana gerila for a while, before joining Radnička kontrola in 1981 where he played with some also soon-to-become-notable artists: drummer Žika Todorović, lead guitarist Darko Milojković and bassist Srđan "Đile" Marković.

As teenagers they recorded two tracks—"Dosada" and "TV u koloru"—both of which found their way onto a various artist compilation Artistička radna akcija released country-wide by Jugoton in 1981. This national exposure led to a spot on the showcase concert at Belgrade's Tašmajdan stadium in September 1981 with a batch of other up-and-coming acts. Barely 17 years old, he incessantly provoked the crowd to a point where so much commotion was created that the show had to be interrupted.[1] This got him some, mostly negative, publicity in the daily papers by prompting a discussion on the values and morals of Yugoslav youth.

Partibrejkers

In August 1982, Cane and drummer Goran "Manzanera" Bulatović dreamed up the idea about a band called Partibrejkers. They were soon joined by guitar player Nebojša "Anton" Antonijević and bassist Ljuba Konstandinović.

For two years during mid-1990s the band was on hiatus and possible brink of folding while Cane battled illness caused by thyroid gland problem for which he had to have surgery. In 1995 he got married and moved to Zrenjanin where he recuperated with his wife. Leaving the pressure cooker of Belgrade behind, he also turned to religion which he credits for helping him calm down and instill self-discipline.[2]
