Risto Samardžiev (Macedonian: Ристо Самарџиев), born 17th August, 1964 in Skopje[1], is a Macedonian singer and songwriter[2]. He started his musical career when he was 16 years old. He formed the Cilindar group in 1981[3], which was one of the first New Wave rock bands in Macedonia. He was also the frontman of New Romantic group Haos in Laos[4]. In 1987 he was invited to perform on MakFest, the largest music festival in the country. The song he performed, Chilli Willi (Чили Вили) then became a hit in Macedonia[5]. After that performance he continued to work independently, appearing in festivals[6] as well as in bands (such as Memorija.) He has won MakFest four times as a performer[7], and has also written songs for other singers[8]. In 2009 he won the pop night of Ohrid Fest in a duet with Vlatko Ilievski titled 'Za ljubov se pee do kraj.'
