Island Mint
Prague band Island Mint plays indie rock in various forms with references to 60s sunshine pop, but also a dose of psychedelia or shoegaze. Island Mint, a band that has been a revelation on the Prague scene since 2021. A combination of 60s sunshine pop and garage rock with references to 90s shoegaze. From the whimsical pop on the Island Mint EP (2021) and through the surreal indie album Irreality (2022), the band of frontman Matyáš Adámek released the kraut-tinged All Studium No Punctum EP in 2023, where the music took on sharper features. For the fourth year in a row, the five-member band has been successfully convincing audiences in Czech and foreign clubs and festivals "that the sun really shines." The judges of Czeching Radio Wave, who sent the band to Eurosonic Noorderslag 2024, also woke up to this.
