<3 Pohoda acoustic version of Lola Marsh’s new single Echoes!
Pohoda 2019 also featured Emmanuel Jal, the former child soldier from South Sudan, together with his sister Nyaruach. Emmanuel has released five award-nominated albums, co-starred with Reese Witherspoon in the motion picture The Good Lie, performed at Live 8, Nelson Mandela’s 90th Birthday Concert and the One Concert for his Holiness the Dalai Lama. He is one of the spokesmen for the Make Poverty History campaign; he was awarded the Desmond Tutu Reconciliation Award 2017, The Dresden Peace Prize; he was asked to give a talk at TED Global, to be a Young Global Leader for the World Economic Forum, and he also performed at the G20 summit. In addition to their concert at Orange stage, they also played for us within Pohoda Acoustic Session!
Pohoda´s discovery, Donny Benét, performed alone during his debut in Slovakia. At his sold-out autumn tour around Slovakia, he was accompanied by his brother Dan and at this year´s Pohoda, the two were joined by the whole group -- The Donny Benét Show Band. The Australian disco king has instantly become a phenomenon and a sweetheart of Pohoda. It is not much of a surprise then that the organisers´ thank-you for the 23rd Pohoda took place during Donny´s performance. You can experience the top-notch atmosphere of this nonchalant artist´s show at our YouTube channel.

The atmosphere of Pohoda 2019 was perfectly captured by the team around Boris Šmotlák from Roadtrip Studio. They chose the new Tarantino-Western-like single Echoes by Lola Marsh as a background music for the collection of their highlights.

Pohoda 2019 also featured the Grammy Award winners Morgan Heritage. The band was founded in 1994 by five children of the famous Jamaican reggae artist Denroy Morgan. They won a Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album for their records Strictly Roots (2015) and Avrakedabra (2018). You can watch the footage of their show on our YouTube channel.
After a fantastic concert with Atoms for Peace, Thom Yorke will return to Pohoda in 2020, this time with the Thom Yorke Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes project. Performing works spanning his solo career Thom Yorke will be joined by legendary producer Nigel Godrich, and visual artist Tarik Barri. This is the earliest confirmed big name in the history of our festival. In early August he released his third solo album Anima. According to Denník N, "he was looking for a soul and found a new beginning" on it. The newspaper further states: "Anima by Radiohead’s frontman belongs to the best you can listen to this summer." British The Telegraph rated the album with a 10/10 score and described it a bleak dystopian rhapsody that you can actually dance to. You can see for yourself in nine months at Pohoda 2020.

Injury Reserve at Pohoda 2021 | POHODA FESTIVAL, 8.–10.7.2021 Airport Trenčín
The first new confirmed name for Pohoda 2021 is a hip-hop trio from Phoenix, Injury Reserve. Their innovative approach has been present in their work since their first mixtapes Cooler Colors and Live from the Dentist Office. According to The Quietus, the key to their success lies in the “blistering fusion of industrial experimentation a la Death Grips”. The fusion is a result of collaboration between Parker Corey and old-school southern rapper duo Ritchie With a T and Stepa J. Groggs. https://www.pohodafestival.sk/en/news/injury-reserve-at-pohoda-2021

Awards in the Spirit of Punk category just confirmed that. They have also been nominated for the Heavy Music Awards (Best UK Band) and last yearʼs Kerrang! Awards (Best British Live Act). A year ago, they released End of Suffering, which is a 40-minute rockʼnʼrollercoaster that was included in the top 5 of the British charts.

Acid Arab live at Pohoda 2021 | POHODA FESTIVAL, 8.–10.7.2021 Airport Trenčín
The Parisian band Acid Arab already stole our hearts away at Pohoda 2017. They play Eastern music on analogue rhythmic and bass boxes and create oriental acid, which is a fusion of cold techno, emotions and drama-charged orient. According to Pitchfork, their album Acid Arab Collections “is among the most enthusiastic collections of any sort of dance music to come out in recent memory.” The BBC presenter and DJ Gilles Petterson’s favourites released a great album Musique de France at the end of 2016 and last year they added a new release Jdid with the band's new member, keyboardist Kenzi Bourras. They will also present their new line-up and new music at the Trenčín airport in 2021. More here: www.pohodafestival.sk/en/news/acid-arab-live-at-pohoda-2021

Another reconfirmed artist for Pohoda 2021 is the well-known techno DJ and producer Paula Temple. She released her debut Edge of Everything only after more than two decades on the scene, but according to reputable media, the waiting was definitely worth it. Resident Advisor wrote that this noisy, phantasmagoric techno sound specialist recorded the third best techno album of 2019. More here: www.pohodafestival.sk/en/news/paula-temple-at-pohoda-2021
Slowthai reconfirmed for Pohoda 2021 | POHODA FESTIVAL, 8.–10.7.2021 Airport Trenčín
Another reconfirmed name for Pohoda 2021 is the British rap star - Slowthai. As mentioned by Hypebeast, "he is a turbulent punk rocker born in the era of grime." In May 2019, he released a debut album called Nothing Great About Britain, on which he collaborated with artists such as Mura Masa, Skepta and Slaves. The album made it to a top 10 of British chart, The Guardian placed it among ten best albums of the year and gave it the highest possible rating. Portal Dazed put the album to the third place among top recordings of the year. Slowthai was also nominated to the Mercury Prize. He is one of the undervalued voices of his generation whereas his texts serve as a manifesto of poor suburbs and excluded communities. https://www.pohodafestival.sk/en/news/slowthai-reconfirmed-for-pohoda-2021
TNGHT at Pohoda 2021 | POHODA FESTIVAL, 8.–10.7.2021 Airport Trenčín
https://www.pohodafestival.sk/en/news/tnght-at-pohoda-2021
Another reconfirmed name of Pohoda 2021 is the joint transatlantic project of Hudson Hohawke and Lunice – TNGHT. Seven years after their fantastic debut, which greatly influenced the electronics of the past decade, they’ve returned to the scene with the album TNGHT II. It’s not the kind of music suitable as background noise or music you’d hear in a café. Hud Mo and Lunice describe it as the most perfect record they’ve ever made in terms of instrumentation. The result is excellent electronics with no categories applicable. It’s a record that falls outside the market rules or the expectations of others, one the duo made on their own terms. As Hud Mo says about the album: "I think it’s a good indicator if something sounds weird and refreshing to us".
