$U\u017e Jsme Doma & Ghost Bones$

Low Key Arts is pleased to welcome the legendary Czech band, Už Jsme Doma, to Hot Springs - supported by the one and only Ghost Bones!!! This pre-Halloween extravaganza will take place Saturday, October 26, 2024 at the Pocket Community Theatre.
Uz Jsme Doma, (pronounced oosh-smeh-dough-ma), are a progressive avant garde jazz-punk band from Czech Republic. It was active during the totalitarian system in former Czechoslovakia and due to that, the band had played mostly on illegal level, and in constant danger of jail.
The band´s approach to arrangements is unique in the world of rock. They bring the instruments and vocals in different directions within the same scales and keys to create a dense melodic atmosphere. In addition, their rhythms often accent off-beats and half-beats, throwing the listener in unexpected directions. The band is also fond of shifts between time signatures and the insertion of extra beats in the shaping of the mood of the song.
They collaborated very closely with the world famous band, The Residents, on their Freak show, and later they released the album, Moravian Meeting, where UJD and Randy, the singer of The Residents, perform together.
Artist Martin Velisek is the non-playing and mostly non/travelling UJD member. His unique, absurd cartoon style, replete with alarming flourishes of realism, gruesomeness and beauty, gives UJD records their distinct look.
Lineup 2024:
Miroslav Wanek (guitar, keyboards, lead vocal)
Martin Velisek (brushes – non/playing, non/traveling, but painting)
Adam Tomasek (trumpet, vocal)
Pepa Cervinka (bass, vocal)
