Seven and Counting a Zadar, Croatia–based rock band, came together in 2014 when Vinko “Rusty” Baković, Daria Baković, and Boško Colić followed a simple spark: curiosity.
Rusty had never played in a band, never taken lessons, and never imagined going public — until he picked up songs he'd written more than 20 years earlier and realized they still had life in them.
Maybe they deserved more than being played in his living room. That question pushed the trio to record a handful of songs “just to see if they were good enough.”
Along the way, musicians came and went — including violinist Domagoj Bašić, who played on their first single I'll Be There and may return as a guest in the future — but the core stayed steady.
As the band evolved, Seven and Counting became a relaxed, good‑humored group with shared taste, shared jokes, and a genuine love for making music.
Whether they're playing a cover or one of their originals, they approach every song the same way: by leaving real pieces of themselves in it. That honesty is what defines them.
Seven and Counting — you guys are the real deal. Tight musicianship, smooth and easygoing feel, but still carrying that rock‑country edge that hits just right. And man… the sax. Smooth as hell. It slides right into that laid‑back groove while still keeping the whole thing rocking. The IMH has invaded Croatia — Welcome to The Hub!
