Dunaj

Throughout the last two decades of the twentieth century, Dunaj was an integral part of the Czech alternative music scene and even enjoyed a “cult” status. The band was renowned for its unique, unmistakable style, based on repetitions, polyrhythm, original, even prophetic lyrics and the cranky performances of the frontman, Jiří Kolšovský. The group disbanded a year before Kolšovský’s untimely death in 1998, but its remaining members, Vladimír Václavek, Josef Ostřanský and Pavel Koudelka, reunited in 2019 to perform a concert together. October 2022 saw the release of a long-anticipated new studio album "Za vodou".
In 2025, three years after the comeback, there is a new collaboration with female singer Jana Vébrová. This resulted in a fine new album "Mňau" also under the direction of producer Petr Ostrouchov.
