Sejko's first group, which included Redon Makashi and Elton Deda was one of the first pop groups of Albania created in clandestinity in the late 1980s: Communist Albania did not allow pop music to be recorded, performed or broadcast. Sejko's nickname has always been Qepa (English: Onion). He taught guitar to Makashi and has always been known as a great performer of the instrument in Albania.[4] He created Megahertz, the first rock band in Albania.[5]

Sejko's last participation to the Festivali i Këngës before "Identitet" had been in 1992 with his group Thunder Way. Their song, "Legjenda e Heroit" (English: The Hero’s Legend), had come last in that festival.[2]
