Gorod 312 (Russian: Город 312, "City 312") is a Russian-language band from Kyrgyzstan,[1] formed in 2001. In the beginning of their career the band's name was "Mangra," but then they changed it to "Gorod 312." 312 is the area code of Bishkek, the city in Kyrgyzstan they came from. The band became famous in 2005, the year they released their first album 213 dorog (213 дорог, "213 roads"). The name of this album is the band's name spelled backwards.

In 2006, they released their next album Vne zony dostupa (Вне зоны доступа, "Out of Range"), which featured songs in alternative rock, blues, and power ballad styles.[2]

In 2007, they released their following album Obernis' (Обернись, "Turn Back");

From 2009-2010, they toured in USA, Belgium, Poland, Germany, France, Netherlands.

In 2010, they filmed first in Russia 3D clip for a song "Pomogi mne" (Помоги мне, "Help Me").

Among others, Gorod 312 won two Golden Gramophone Awards for their songs.

The band supported the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the Presidential Administration of Russia put it on the list of singers who were recommended to be invited to state-sponsored events.[3]
