LAZER VIKING

20. srpen 2017

Guitarist, singer, songwriter and lone wolf Jakub Kaifosz is a different kind of rock’n’roll giant. He is known for making music with the band Wild Tides and now Jakub is revealing his even more provocative alter ego Lazer Viking.

Michal Brenner, music director of the MeetFactory club, nominated Lazer Viking:
“I chose Lazer Viking because I can see it succeeding in the competition abroad thanks to the showmanship of Kuba Kaifosz, who is a crazy extrovert on stage and he can create a show that comes off as a revelation on the small Czech scene. I think that it could work the same way in front of a foreign audience. There is no barrier, it does not matter what language he sings in because it’s all about the show.”

Talented songwriter and singer as well as avant-garde performer Lazer Viking is supposedly a salute to the sloppiness of rock ‘n’ roll, the glitz of glam and the absolute cheesiness of contemporary punk. He definitely does not take himself seriously and is not afraid to enjoy all the beauty and pleasures of popular culture from Dadaism to wrestling. “The most eccentric and egocentric of all the alternative musicians in Prague” is currently working on a new record titled Drag in collaboration with Charles Rowell of the Crocodiles and Martin Přikryl from The Prostitutes.
