Next Time is a rock duo from Skopje, Republic of Macedonia. The duo consists of twin brothers Martin and Stefan Filipovski. Stefan fronts the band as the lead singer, while Martin plays the guitar and sings back-up vocals.The group represented Macedonia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2009 in Moscow, Russia but failed to reach the final.
Next Time formed in early 2008 after signing with Plan B Production.Previously they performed in various garage bands and at child music festivals. Discovered by composer and songwriter, Jovan Jovanov, the Macedonian duo released their first single "Ne Veruvam Vo Tebe" ("I Don't Trust You") in May, 2008. The song's lyrics were written by Next Time with Jovanov as the producer. "Ne Veruvam Vo Tebe" immediately topped multiple charts in Macedonia and was quickly a hit which shot Next Time through the roof of the Macedonian music scene. The band also released their first music video for the song. Soon followed Next Time's first festival appearance at the First Radio Music Festival "Zvezdena Nok" in June, 2008. At "Zvezdena Nok", the duo won the "Summer Hit of the Year" award with their second song "Me Mislish Li?" ("Am I In Your Thoughts?"). Two months later at Ohrid Fest, Next Time were voted "Best New Artist" with their third single "Me Ostavi Sam Da Zhiveam" ("You Left Me All Alone"). However, Next Time's biggest festival success came in October when they won the second semi-final evening at MakFestperhaps the most renowned Macedonian Music Festival. With their fourth single "Bez Tebe Tivko Umiram" ("I'm Slowly Dying Without You") they went on to finish second in the final of the festival, only three points behind the winner.
On the 16th of December, 2008 Next Time released their self-titled debut album. The Next Time Album featured 13 songs, two of which were bonus songs sung in a foreign language. One of the bonus songs was in English and was named "Why Did You Go". The other was a cover of an Italian pop-opera song called "Caruso". The first four singles were all accompanied by music videos.With the release of their eponymous debut album, they quickly gained popularity and are prominent in the Macedonian music scene.
They are nice...I have seen them many times live even when they won on some festival here and also on our nacional selection...About the hair they said that will cut it when they feal to do that...In one magazine they said that Stefan the blond guy was in love with Elena from Romania because her dad is from Macedonia and also I don't know if you know but Martin the guy with the black hair was Mister on Eurovison like Dimka in 2007...They are very popular here and their songs are hits...
