Zambosi
A little introductory information for an unfamiliar visitor, a future fan, a nosy journalist, an avid organizer, a mature dramaturge, which could do as well for the amusement and the education of already established fans and old friends of the band.
Who?
Zambosi = three musicians from Vsetin, Honza Zamboch (that’s where Zambosi came from), Stana Zambochova and Juri Nedavaska. These three and their vehicle “Snow-white” leave their homes week after week to please the auditory in faraway places of the country and sometimes even further, from As in the west to Trinec in the east. A guitar, an accordion, two singing voices and the drums, together make a relaxing atmosphere in a tearoom as well as they are able to demolish the ruins (remains) of the Strahov stadium by using their energy. They were awarded for their first album with Angel Award (Czech Pop Music Academy Award). They were awarded for their second album with another Angel Award. At the moment they are working on the third album. There is the manager and music producer Zeno Vaclavik in the backround of all of this. He is always seen with two mobiles in his ears and all fingers and toes on the keyboards.
What?
Zambosi play their own repertoire that is written in 96,43% by Honza Zamboch. Their songs are most often called folk chanson, but Zambosi do not bother. They released the album To se to hraje… (It is easy to play…) in 2006 and album Prituhuje (It’s getting cold) in 2009. They got the highest possible award for both of them – The Angel Award, an award from the Czech Pop Music Academy. Honza is happy, because he takes it as a good sign, that his music is of a good quality, Stana has mixed feelings, because she has to dust the statuettes. Jura is half happy, because he was not part of Zambosi, when they got the first Angel.
How?
A guitar, vocal, an accordion, vocal, drums. Plus a lot of vallachian wisdom, if there is the need to retune the instrument. Standing, sitting, on a train, in a car, life, electric, acoustic... Zambosi just love to do it however.
Where?
Zambosi perform in clubs, at festivals, in tearooms, in culture houses, in chapels, churches, castles and chateaus, monasteries, in vaults or by a dam. You can listen to them on the radio, you can watch them on TV or on the internet. So far they have performed in Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia (3 parts of the Czech Republic), in Slovakia, in Spain, in Poland and even in Liberec. They can play for example in your living room, if you plan to have a nice evening with your friends or you would like to solve your neighborhood problems forever.
When?
List of concerts can be found here.
Who with?
Three people are probably too many for love, but it is an ideal number for making the music. In spite of that, you can also find that there is someone else on the stage with Zambosi. It is a fat man Monty. In such a case it is necessary to use special support for the stage and for TV recording you need a special wide-angle lense. Zambosi record their songs in “V” studio with Ivo Viktorin and Petr Vavrik, Peter Binder was the music producer for the album Prituhuje.
How much?
Do you really expect that you would find everything on the internet? If you are interested in a concert or some other use of Zambosi please call or email the booking agency. Give your full name, introduce your coordinates and then stay where you are for at least a couple of seconds. And then, maybe, Zambosi will appear.
Why? Is it necessary?
It is fantastic, it is funny, it is full of musical ideas and it is not boring at all…
