Robert Křesťan & Druhá Tráva

Robert Křesťan (born 16 September 1958) is a Czech singer, multi-instrumentalist, composer, lyricist, and translator. He began his musical career in the bluegrass band Trapéři, moved to the Brno-based Poutníci in 1979, and left them in 1991 to co-found Druhá Tráva with banjo player Luboš Malina, with whom he continues to perform.

He is a multiple recipient of the Porta award — including for the songs Panenka (1982), Podobenství o náramcích (1983), and Napsal jsem jméno svý na zdi (1987) — as well as the Anděl award. In 1992 he won the Gramy award (predecessor to Anděl) in the Folk & Country category for the album Revival, and then annually from 1996 to 1999.

In 2020 he received the Anděl award with Druhá Tráva in the Folk category for the album Díl první and was inducted into the Hall of Fame. Two years later he won the same award for the album Díl druhý.
