Mirek Kemel with the band at Leitnerka!
We will play with a complete band consisting of:
Mirek Kemel (guitar, accordion, ukulele)
Vlastimil Konopiský (guitar)
Tomáš Görtler (accordion)
Petr Tichý (double bass)
Petr Mikeš (drums)
Mirek Kemel sings his own songs and accompanies himself on accordion, guitar and ukulele. He usually performs with the band, which also includes Vlastimil Konopiský (acoustic and electric guitar), Tomáš Görtler (accordion, also a member of the Bran ensemble), Petr Tichý (double bass) and Petr Mikeš (drums). Vladimír Javorský (ukulele, guitar, flute, saxophone) performs as an occasional guest with the band.
Their music balances on the border of several genres, from ballads to chanson and blues to catchy pub songs. It is always primarily a personal confession of the author, who embodies in the texts his perception of life and the world in many obvious and only suspected aspects. The songs are based on poetic lyrics and a simple melody. You could say that Mirek Kemel comes from similar roots such as Vašek Koubek, Jaromír Nohavica, Radůza, Krausberry, Vladimír Mišík or Traband.
