Robert Křesťan & Druhá Tráva

Robert Křesťan & Druhá Tráva have been active on the Czech folk and country scene since 1991, when Robert Křesťan and Luboš Malina founded the band after leaving the Brno-based Poutníci. The group has released 21 albums in the Czech Republic and the USA, regularly tours the United States, and is a multiple winner of the Anděl award in the Folk and Country category. Robert Křesťan was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2021.

The current concert programme features a selection of the band's work across its entire history, with emphasis on the last two studio albums - Díl první (Anděl 2021) and Díl druhý (Anděl 2023). The album Díl druhý was created again with producer Eddie Stevens at Birdland Studios at the foot of the Súľovské Mountains; Stevens incorporated keyboards, synthesizers, and unconventional studio effects into the arrangements.

The band performs in the line-up: Robert Křesťan (lead vocals, mandolin, guitar), Luboš Malina (banjo, Irish whistles, tenor saxophone, vocals), Luboš Novotný (dobro, lap steel, vocals), Radek Hlávka (guitar, vocals), Tomáš Liška (double bass, bass guitar), and Martin Novák (drums, percussion, cajon).

The venue opens at 18:00 on the day of the concert. We recommend arriving an hour before the start - that way you'll have time to choose your seat in our small club and enjoy refreshments in peace.
