Band “Pushking” was created on August 27, 1994. Initially the name of the band was “Lost and Found”. Since the name “Lost and Found” in many ways was considered to be excessively pro-Western our partners suggested to change it. On August 27, 1994 an ordinary German guy Martin Schiffler, who was on his private visit to St.Petersburg, brings up a new name — “Pushking”.

“Pushking” is a slang word which consists of two parts — “push” and “king”. Hence in 1994 a new band with the name “Pushking” was born.
