The solo performance “My Way” by Shahab Tolouie will be presented for the first time on October 25 and recurring on October 27 and November 24 at 19:30.

Live session video release

2021 has started with a wave of pleasant news for our band. One of them is an invaluable support for the band by SoundCzech. We received proposition to record live session of of our four songs. Three songs are from our upcoming album “Terra Mediterranea” set for release on Spring 2021.

All the preparation and shooting took place in the middle of December. The result – professionally produced video/sound in a calming and rather faded atmosphere of the legendary Palac Akropolis in Prague. The songs played live, exactly how you’ll hear at our concerts. Except we had to rearrange the songs to be a bit shorter for the teaser.

COVID-19 Lockdown is Over. We’re Back on the Road

On March 2020 the world hit by the Covid-19 pandemic and the consequences of the lockdown. Those who could, began to work from home. Others, whose daily life was on the road, suddenly became locked up in their homes 24/7.

Musicians, dancers, artists, theatres, clubs and festivals had to face their most difficult times with nobody to perform for.
We, similar to almost every other band, had to deal with our own challenges caused by the lockdown. All our performances from March till end of June were cancelled or postponed. Due to Covid-19 lockdown, we couldn’t go outside, just on essential cases. And guess, band rehearsals isn’t a life essential event. So, all our communications went on-line and our rehearsals became virtual.
