Holeček & Dvorská - Chrudim

Holeček & Dvorská is an acoustic duo featuring singer and multi-instrumentalist Honza Holeček and rock violinist Eliška Dvorská. Their programme consists largely of original compositions by Honza Holeček, complemented by covers of Peter Hammill, Chris Cornell, and Led Zeppelin. Musically, the duo draws from Anglo-American folk rock, rock, and progressive rock.

Watson Jr., who played in Bob Dylan's band in the 1990s.
