The Barbed Café at Smetanovy sady opens the door to the world of EB. Come by to have a rest, try some good coffee and take a moment to see how the world is perceived by people whose skin is as delicate as the wings of a butterfly.

Concert – Nano. An indie electro-pop quartet bringing rock’n’roll energy, powerful melodies and an air of melancholy together in a one-of-a-kind musical experience. This formation of experienced musicians fronted by charismatic singer Marquet embodies the joy of playing music, and for many has been one of the big discoveries on the Czech indie scene in the last two years. Nano proves that intelligent and energetic pop exists, and that simplicity can be sophisticated.

Stage in front of the Thermal hotel
Concert – Never Sol. Tender songwriting, infectious melancholy and a mesmerising voice full of naked emotion – that is the Never Sol project started by singer and pianist Sára Vondrášková. One of the biggest Czech discoveries of recent times, she first drew attention with the composition “Lay Down” from the crime drama In the Shadow from director David Ondříček. The song, which has drawn a superb response, also marked the beginning of her cooperation with the legendary producer Jan P. Muchow, under whose supervision Never Sol is putting together its debut album.
