The festival of folk music bands was initiated in 2007 by the Romanian journalist Marius Tucã from Jurnalul Naţional Newspaper, in the spirit of Recurs la România (a media campaign with the aim to bring to light the authentic national cultural values) and has turned into an authentic resistance movement. It started at the National Village Museum „Dimitrie Gusti” from Bucharest, it continued at the outdoor Museum from Dumbrava Sibiului and, in the summer of 2010, it also passed by the Bucovina Village Museum in Suceava.
