The National Orchestra of Afghanistan concert will celebrate the power and freedom of music as well. The orchestra is formed by the Afghanistan National Institute of Music students who managed to flee the Taliban regime and moved to Portugal. It also features some of the girls who already played at Pohoda as part of the female orchestra Zohra. This orchestra was founded in 2018 and has been a great influence on Afghan music life since then. Their repertoire features compositions by Western as well as Afghan authors of classical and traditional music. According to the orchestra’s music director, the program for Pohoda will focus mainly on Afghan music. → read more
We conclude the list of foreign names in the Pohoda line-up with a great discovery of the American hip hop scene, the duo They Hate Change. We liked them instantly and Gleb, who will play after them, also confirmed their uniqueness. Dre and Vonne are sound omnivores, lovers of rare and radical sounds. Their work is influenced by bass music variants such as jook (unexpected Gulf of Mexico response to house) and crank, as well as drum’n’bass, post-punk, prog, grime, krautrock, emo, and basically any music genre. → read more
Greatest Hits enchanted us at Pohoda deň FM, where Donny Benét brought them from Australia. They are the embodiment of an ideal festival band—great music, great dances and costumes, and nice people behind the scenes. When we told them that there was a possibility of playing at Pohoda, they did not hesitate—just as they enchanted us, they were thrilled by our audience. A gust of the seventies, psychedelia, surf-rock, and, above all, very catchy rhythms and melodies. This is exactly the kind of the band, music, and people you will fall in love with from the first moment, and so we are happy to have them at the Trenčín Airport. → read more
