To be a professional musician in my country, The Czech Republic, it is very difficult - if anything, it has been only 26 years without communism as a culture. Along with this, I am a musician coming from musical family on both sides, where none of them unfortunately followed their dreams, this is something I just cannot be reconciled with. I simply don't want to receive what my father always kept saying to me: "Just understand/ take this reality, in this country people prefer pop and rock. And the population of Czech is not vast, so you cannot make your music here unless you satisfy their demands. I‘m telling you - have a normal job and beside that do music as a hobby, as everyone here does, as I do."


After my schools, I decided to leave Czech Republic to pursue what I'm living for. And the country I found to be the most fertile, where the music is alive, appreciated, open to new talents, is USA. After a complicated process I received my visa and came for the first time to New Orleans with my friend, a guitarist, to experience the real musical culture there, and at least make a bit of money performing on the streets, just to be creative and explore. After 3 months I arrived home, realizing, that nothing changed in Czech, I started thinking about leaving again to USA, but this time for longer. After a few interesting, definitely spiritual coincidences, the city where I headed to was Austin in Texas.

Now-a-days, through all the hustle and bustle, I've been playing here successfully in clubs like Brass House, Russian House, East Side Show Room, Firehouse Lounge, Hi-Hat, with some of the best musicians here in Austin. More so there will be a radio-show and SXSW show in the near future. I cannot explain how grateful I am for these opportunities! To make this journey complete (not sure for how long I can stay since my visa is limited) I'd really love to record the music I've been playing with them as well as a few of my songs. It is very exciting for me to start a Indigogo as a recommendation from my musical friends, that this support here in USA works! Cannot wait to make my dream come true!
