ABOUT
Band founded in 1979 in Bratislava, former Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia). Prešporok is an old name for the town of Bratislava (Pressburg in German), used until 1918.

Their songs are a unique mixture of urban folk, rock, or big beat. They are all author compositions by the frontman. On the other hand, the band plays a lot of traditional folklore ethnic songs, especially from northern Slovakia (Liptov region), where the frontman has his roots.

Current band members:

Kliment Ondrejka Jr. (Klimo) - founder, lead vocals, guitars, composer, songwriter (since 1979)

František Petriška (Fero) - flute, tin whistle, harmonica, guitar (since 2017, however, worked with the band as a sound engineer since the late '80s and occasionally played the flute as a guest)

Vladimír Mrázko (Vlado) - cajon, drums, various percussions (since 1985)

Igor Baar (Igi) - bass (guest)
