Benedikta
active from year 1995

unconventional folk-rock band originally coming from Karvina, influenced by a lot of other styles from funky and jazz to punk or even hip-hop. They mainly play adapted traditional songs from Eastern Europe. The band is based on two Vanova sisters; thanks to their duets they earned the label of Cechomor in skirts, which is quite inaccurate, considering their unorthodox sound.
