Stará jedáleň

The band stylistically moves between jazz, folk, beat, and blues. The group, led by the charismatic guitarist and singer Ján Ponka Duban and associating itself with the Ursíny tradition, builds its repertoire on setting world poetry to music. Their work includes songs such as “Opíjajte sa,” “Šanzón na nedeľu,” and “Nenechajte toho koňa zožrať tie husle.” At the turn of the millennium, they performed in numerous clubs and festivals in Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and other countries, with a schedule regularly exceeding ten concerts per month. They also performed as the opening act for the band Buty.
