About this concert
An unusual music festival that takes place in the backdrop of the historical center of the city of Česká Kamenice, where three protected landscape areas meet - the fairy-tale Bohemian Switzerland, the harsh Lusatian Mountains and the mysterious Czech Central Mountains. The influences of this region speak strongly in the spirit of the festival and also in its dramaturgy. Even a smaller town can have a great festival with high-quality dramaturgy and a unique atmosphere for everyone, regardless of age, social origin, skin color, gender or sexual orientation. It is accompanied by great music, unusual local architecture, fantastic food, beautiful nature, a tent city in the immediate vicinity of a forest swimming pool…that's Kamenice.

Monkey Business Biography
The band Monkey Business began in 2000 and immediately after releasing their first record quickly became an overnight sensation. After that, all four records of this great funky band from Prague opened to enthusiastic reviews and sold out concert tours. Anything less would be considered a failure, as bandleader and producer Roman Holý was not satisfied with having the best Prague funkateers joining his new outfit. Instead, he invited funk legend Fred Wesley to add some old school funk flavour.
Fred Wesley, best known for his time as James Brown’ s band leader and author of several hit records, including Pass the Peas and Houseparty, worked with Monkey Business on their first two albums, writing the horn section arrangements and leading the section in the studio. Another notable guest was David Williams, a regular of Michael Jackson and Madonna records.
MB’s albums offer tracks with 99% English lyrics, tackling matters ranging from career choices to the creation of the universe. All records were published on the Sony Music Columbia label.
