Dan Barta

Singer of the famous Czech funky band J.A.R. . Before he sang in the hardrock band Alice and his own "Die Elektrische Elephant". In late 90's many activitie out of the funky style (singing in Czech versions of Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita, then his own project Illustratosphere with jazz influence reminding Sting).His hard anti-pirate attitude may have upset some of his true fans which is a shame because the music of Illustratosphere has no match on the Czech scene in its genre.
