Kadebostany UK: /ˌkædəˈbɒstənɪ/ (stylized as KADEBOSTANY) is a band from Geneva, Switzerland. It was founded in 2008 in what they call the "European republic of Kadebostany".[1] It is produced by Geneva DJ and producer Kadebostan, with lead vocals, lyrics and melodies by Amina. It is co-produced and mixed by Ed Lyve. The band has its unique visual stylistic identity and its powerful live performances and music videos (by SuperMafia) reflecting this.

In 2011, the band released their first album Songs From Kadebostany. Their 2013 album Pop Collection brought them the breakthrough in Switzerland and a triple nomination for the Swiss Music Awards in categories "Best Talent - National", "Best Live Act - National" and "Best Act - Romandie", the only band to achieve so this year.[2] The band engaged in an international tour starting December 2014 with venues in Switzerland, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Greece, Turkey, Czech Republic and Slovakia.

New album "Soldiers of Love" to be released in 2017, first single "Frozen to Death” was released in May. Kadebostany now features a new vocalist Kristina, described as "one of the best kept secrets of the Republic."
