20 let Amplion Records a Limbo + CD release concert
ft. František Kop Trio & Zuzana Dumková Band

For over 20 years Limbo has been among the leaders in contemporary Czech jazz, straddling several genres, basically flying above them. The unusually busy quartet creates a universal music collage on a jazz basis. Improvisation, composition, communication and numerous ethnic sounds intersect significantly throughout the band's existence without any barriers that would limit the musicians' expression. The band is not interested in trends – they go their own way with a clear and distinct opinion. Their main inspiration in jazz is the legendary Art Ensemble of Chicago. Their second CD Kalimbo (Amplion Records 2007) was nominated by the Academy of Popular Music (Angel) for the album of the year 2008 in the Jazz and Blues category. In 2014, the band celebrated 10 years of existence. The documentary LIMBO 2004 - 2014 was shot for this anniversary.

The group's leader, saxophonist and clarinetist Pavel Hrubý was nominated for the prestigious Anděl2015 award in the Jazz Blues category for his solo album Between The Lines (Amplion Records 2014) and in 2022 for his solo album Go Between (AmplionRecords 2021). Oskar Törok is a celebrated trumpet player and member of elite bands such as Vertigo, Iva Bittová, Wojtek Mazolewski Quintet. He has been awarded several Anděl awards in the Jazz&Blues category. Double bassist Taras Vološčuk is an occasional teammate of the world-famous American pop singer Suzanne Vega when she performs in Central Europe. Dušan Černák is a renowned drummer on the contemporary Czech music scene and leader of his own jazz-rock trio Tryptych.
