Morandi is a Romanian europop music group composed of Marius Moga and Andrei Ştefan Ropcea (Randi). The group's name derives from the first two letters of Moga's name and Ropcea's nickname, Randi, creating Morandi.

Aside from being successful in Romania, the group ranked highly on several pan-European charts (including the MTV Europe chart and the World Chart Express) and became probably the most successfully band in the history of Eastern Europe after O-Zone[citation needed]. Their music is very popular among the young people in the countries of Russia, Bulgaria, Albania, Greece, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Poland, Macedonia, Lithuania and Ukraine. Morandi were nominated as Best Romanian Act at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2005, and at the 2006 EMAs, and won the award at the 2008 awards. "Angels" was called "Most successful track 2008" in Russia.
