Brontosauři

The Czech folk and tramping music group Brontosauři was started in 1972 by two brothers Jan and František Nedvěd. It was the product of the former band Toronto in Luka pod Medníkem. Thanks to the great expressive creativity of the Nedvěd brothers, the band quickly became very popular, especially after the Portal Music Festival. Later more musicians, each of whom were also members of the more popular band Spirituál kvintet, joined the brothers. Today, Brontosauři is among the folk music legends of the Czech Republic. The band broke up in 1994 after the release of their last album Zahrádky.
