Identity – CD

Ondej Brzobohats first solo album written entirely by himself brings together songs shaped by jazz, soul, pop, funk and big beat. The popular musician and actor spent a long time gathering material in order to create a thoughtful, unhurried collection about his musical and personal identity. The lyrics combine a sense of rhythm with shifting emotions expressed through inventive metaphors. Brzobohat recorded the songs with his concert bandmates and former classmates from the Jaroslav Jeek Conservatory: drummer Tom Kozelka, saxophonist Matou Kobylka, bassist Jaroslav Pokorn and guitarist Ondej Fier. The strings are performed by Epoque Orchestra under Jan Kuera. Slovak singer Peter Cmorik appears as a guest on the Czech-Slovak duet Vietor, while Tereza ernochov provides vocals on Vtkyn. The album contains ten tracks, including Identity, Sprvci osud, Jst, meditovat, milovat, Vstkyn, And The Oskars Go To, Markza Andl, Sedm, Spolu, Vietor and Epilog. The song And The Oskars Go To introduced the album with an inventive music video directed by Vojta Kotek.
