Island Mint
Light music for a lazy summer afternoon or a long car trip somewhere behind the sun and the sea, that's how we could characterize the Island Mint project. Singer-songwriter Matyáš Adámek has been active on the Prague alternative scene for several years, in the past, for example, as the frontman of the band Humdrum Lighthouse. Under the pseudonym Island Mint, he creates music inspired by the pop of the 60s and 70s, incorporating elements of psychedelia, shoegaze and garage rock. The rich sound palette opens the door to dreamscapes that are a reflection of Matyáš's inner world.
