Son of Slovak Music Legend to Perform Father's Songs in Special Bratislava and Prague Concerts

Share:

Jakub Ursiny will perform songs by his father, legendary Slovak musician Dežo Ursiny, in special concerts in Bratislava and Prague this March. The performances will feature music from Ursiny's acclaimed works including "A Thousand Rooms" and songs from the musical "Don't Take Our Princess Away." Jakub has been performing his father's music since 2011 but says he has never had such a strong backing band as his current ensemble. Last year, he toured former Czechoslovakia with the "Dežo Knows" concert series, which he will conclude with these two final shows on March 14 in Prague's Akropolis venue, with a talented singer named Nina joining as a guest performer. The concerts represent a tribute to Dežo Ursiny's enduring influence on Slovak and Czech popular music.
