Čechomor

**Čechomor** is a legendary Czech folk band that's been keeping traditional Moravian and Czech music alive with a modern twist since forming in the late 1980s. Known for blending fiery folk melodies with rock energy and even Celtic influences, their sound is a lively mix of fiddles, dulcimers, and bagpipes paired with electric guitars and driving rhythms. Fronted by fiddler and vocalist František Černý, the group digs deep into regional folk tales, historical themes, and danceable tunes, giving ancient traditions a fresh, foot-stomping makeover.

Over the years, Čechomor has become a cultural institution in the Czech Republic, celebrated for their electrifying live shows and albums like *Kandráčomor* and *Tak naladíme a jedem!*. Tracks like *Švarní šohajové* and *Ej, lásko* showcase their knack for turning centuries-old songs into crowd-pleasing anthems. Whether they’re performing at festivals or historic venues like Chlumecký zámek, Čechomor’s music feels like a joyful bridge between past and present—proof that folk music can rock just as hard as it resonates.
