Joe Straggler + The Weathermakers

Joe Straggler - incentive and loafer, tramp and hippie, loneliness and beating, poet, multiplayer and music experimenter. We can include it in the stream of Dylan folk with elements of American wilderness and wandering blues, but we can also notice a certain inclination towards chanson and world music. One foot in the underground with his hand on the sheet music adjusting the choir parts. For the last five years he has also been riding the so-called Celtic wave. Such a small renaissance mystery. But who will believe ...
The Weathermakers is a Brno blues rock band united around the songwriter and accordion player Jakub Jiaxis Svoboda. Their music is based on blues roots, with overlaps into other genres (rock, alternative) and is based primarily on lyrics full of guaranteed true third-hand stories. The specificity is the use of non-traditional, recycled, instruments (cigar box guitar from a cigar box or diddley bow from a broken bench) and accordion combos made from old radios. All this is illustrated by the specific, shaggy style of this Brno party.
