Protest Songs for Slovakia + Edo Klena & Klenoty | Košice

We long for love, freedom, justice, and peace. Our longings have not been fulfilled in the past, nor are they being fulfilled today.

Have socially conscious artists of the past 50 years been singing about the same things? Does their work also reflect today’s world? Come see for yourself.

The rock-folk band Klena & Klenoty ( Šarišská republika, Prešov) performs original songs by singer-songwriter Edo Klena. Since 2006, they have performed at numerous festivals in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, as well as in clubs and pubs that support live music. Their multi-genre music, which appeals to listeners across generations, reaches a wide audience.

Edo Klena is a singer-songwriter who has performed at numerous events throughout Czechoslovakia since 1986. He has appeared in two solo television recitals, *Pesničkári slovenskí* (1990 and 1993), the recital *Urobme si ticho* (2000) with the band Východ—formerly known as Núdzový východ—and, in 2009, an appearance on the Slovak folk music showcase *Folkfórum* on STV2.
