Tazenda

Italian etno-pop rock band formed in Sardinia in 1988 thanks to Andrea Parodi, Gigi Camedda and Gino Marielli, all coming from the group Il Coro Degli Angeli. The band is inspired by traditional Sardinian music, culture and language. Most of the songs are sung in Lodogurese Sardinian, a variant of the Sardinian language, in which documents of historical interest were written in the past (like "Carta de Logu" in 1392) have been written. Some songs are in Italian, too.

The name is inspired by Isaac Asimov's Second Foundation, that belongs to the Foundation Series. In the novel the planet Tazenda has a fundamental role.
