KK Band - promoters info
The group KK Band was formed in September 1998. Since then they have been giving regular concerts at home as well as abroad, once in a jazz club, next time in a cultural centre and then at a multi-genre festival.
KK Band plays fresh, pleasant acoustic-electric music at the frontiers of jazz, rock and romantic classics. Their repertoire is based on original compositions by Zdeněk Král and Martin Krajíček.
Apart from the Czech republic, the KK Band has performed e.g. in Austria, Romania, Belgium and Germany.
