Jazz Mistake - jazz band from west Bohemia | main page



The band

alt

Jazz Mistake was founded in 2003. We perform not just in clubs all over the Czech Republic but also at various jazz festivals (e.g. Jazz na konci léta in Český Krumlov, Jazz Na ulici in Pilsen, Jazz fest Brno) and abroad (Berlin, Budapešť, Regensburg).

In 2007, we released the debut album Kocour v kuchyni (Tom Cat in the Kitchen), which was accepted favourably by both critics and fans, and in February 2008 we undertook the Czech Republic tour.

Our style is entirely original, as we play almost exclusively our own compositions. We often incorporate odd rhytmic patterns, unusual harmonic progressions and distinctive melodic phrasing, as it is common in contemporary jazz and fusion, with emphasis on sponaneous improvisation.

Alongside with concert performing, which we consider prior, we occassionally appear at various social events, such as corporate parties, banquets and vernissages. If you are interested in our offer, do not hesitate to contact us.
