Mladí Ladí Jazz 2017 – PanzerBallett + support: Modern Day Babylon

This crazy eclectic instrumental band renowned for its eccentric originality and unexpected innovativeness will perform for the first time ever in the Czech Republic. It is possible to trace the inspiration of Panzerballett’s music in a combination of funk, metal, jazz and progressive rock. Such unprecedented fusion of various styles makes the band so distinctive and extraordinary. Although it might leave the audience wondering what is it that Panzerballett actually performs. To quote frontman of the band, Jan Zehrfeld, the music combines “latin-jazz with grindcore, hard-bop with death metal, or disco-funk with hardcore.” You need a hint? It is in their name – the music is thick and dense as an armour (i.e. Panzer) yet complex and sophisticated as ballet.

Panzerballett’s first album was released in 2006 and by now their discography stopped on the number seven. The most recent Breaking Brain was recorded in 2015. During the ten years of existence Panzerballett toured with concerts and around festivals in countries like Armenia, USA or Germany. Mladi Ladi Jazz has the honour to make the Czech Republic another country to host their unorthodox and insane music frenzy, now for the very first time.

Headliner will be supported by Modern Day Babylon.
