Marie Puttnerová & kapela

Singer Marie Puttnerová, moving around the Czech music scene in the original lineups Jablkoň, Půljabkoň and Zvíře named Podzim, will perform with her band (Martin Novák, Petr Uvira, Martin Brunner) again in Prague.

Marie Puttnerová with the record Laila tov became the winner of the Album of the Year 2023 poll, which is announced annually by the editors of Radio Proglas. 110 interviewed personalities took part in the survey - publicists, musicians, organizers of concerts and festivals, promoters and also selected representatives of radio listeners. In the same way, the album was successful at the Anděl Coca-Cola 2023 awards, when on March 30, 2024 it received the winner's prize in the Folk category. Lanugo, Blue Shadows, Jaromír Honzák Quintet, David Dorůžka/Robert Fischmann/Martin Novák) joined together to create a common musical world made up not only of Puttnerová's original songs, but also a world in which fragments of the musical poetry of the fragile Jan Zahradníček or the surreal Vlastimil Třešňák can be heard . After inviting the Opava guitar wizard Petar Uvira (Ladě, Heimat, Jitka Šuranská, Vladivojna la Chia) to collaborate, there was a joint symbiosis of human voices and electric guitars, which urgently pushed the imaginary boundaries of folk.

V however, in 2022 there was a crucial connection with the British producer Eddie Stevens (Druhá trava, Jana Kirschner, Roisín Murphy, Moloko), thanks to which Puttnerová's debut album called Laila tov was released on April 28, 2023. The original sound of the trio really changed with the joint creation, and so the band expands with a fourth member, composer, pianist and synthesizer player, Martin Brunner (Martin Brunner Trio, The Prague Six, Markéta Foukalová, Klara & The Pop).
