Dunaj (band)
Dunaj were a Czech alternative art rock band from Brno active between 1986 and 1998. The band is notable for its inclusion of Czech rock figureheads Iva Bittová and Pavel Fajt, as well as its own international success and influence on the Czech alternative rock scene. The band's name translates in English to "Danube", referring to the river of this name.
History
The earliest performances by the group occurred in 1986 under the name Kolektiv. The initial lineup featured vocalists Bittová and Jiří Kolšovský, guitarists Josef Ostřanský and Pavel Richter, bassist Vladimír Václavek, and Fajt playing drums. The group, all of whose members were active in other projects, performed only sporadically at the time.
In 1989, after the success of the Fajt/Bittová collaborative LP, the members decided to resurrect and record the Kolektiv material. In the process, the group changed their name to Dunaj, released their debut record, Dunaj a Bittová, and performed a handful of well-received concerts.
