Performers - Part 67

Jakub Čermák

Jakub Čermák, born in 1986, is a Czech poet and musician.  He has released five collections of poetry, and under the name Cermaque he has released five music albums.

In 2016 he and his wife Andrea Knotkova, who performs under the alias Iamme Candlewick (they have since divorced) were interviewed and performed for a Czech radio station.

We first see the two of them singing on the radio.

The interview was in Czech, which I do not speak, but I read that they talked about famous Czech singer Vladimir Merta who was a guest on their new album, and they mentioned that Merta likes to take his clothes off.  The radio interviewer said it never happened to him that someone took his clothes off in the studio.  Jakub said it would be a shame if that never happened – and then he started to strip ...

until he was naked ...

and then he continued the interview ...

and sang another song. 

See the the video above, containing a sequence of clips that I have selected from a much longer video of the full radio interview.  It's all in Czech, but you can enjoy the visuals.
