Hello Marcel and Gufrau

The duo HELLO MARCEL slowly formed during 2017, when the boys Adam Sodomka and Michael Macek (alias Šmáca), friends from the Svitava gymnasium, hit their heads so hard that they got the idea to form a Czech disco band. The first songs were written alternately in a shared rehearsal room in Svitavy or at Šmáci's apartment on Anglická street in Prague. In February 2018, they released their debut album called Marcel, named after their funny and inspiring friend. After the previous busy year, they managed to finish 9 songs and outline the early dance vision of this tandem group. The release was done amateurishly, basically they just recorded it on Spotify, then filmed it on their mobile phone and edited the first video clip for the song Seš Strelec together over a beer. In May, the first concert took place in Prague's Vzorkovna, then the song Bůček resonated on the air of the program Startér, and the following year already received invitations to the Beseda u bigbítu, Rosnička and other festivals.
The crucial point in the renewal of their specific musical disco-surrealism occurred at the beginning of 2020, when they released their second full-length studio album, Hořák. They subsequently gained considerable attention by creating the soundtrack for the comedy series Bananas for Prima+. They also close this milestone year by finishing and releasing the LP 2018 - 2023, which contains a selection of the best released songs and which, for the first time in their history, is also released on a physical medium in the form of vinyl. In addition, they are not afraid to enrich their creative universe by collaborating with the non-profit organization Help pes, in the framework of which they create an awareness campaign that points out the ethical pitfalls of sedating dogs during New Year's celebrations. On this occasion, they release an eponymous recording called Jsem psjetej.

GUFRAU is an artist group creating primarily electronic music combining elements of bassline, rap and dance music. When listening at home, it is ideal to focus on the text and musical structure, but when participating in live events, you need to create a circle of friends with whom you can bump into each other and dance to the rhythm of the deafening bass...
