Patti Smith Quartet to Perform at Forum Karlín in Prague

Patti Smith Quartet will perform on July 19 at Forum Karlín in Prague as part of their European tour to celebrate the 50th anniversary of her album “Horses”.

Released in December 1975, Horses is regarded as a landmark punk rock album, with Smith’s unique style influencing countless artists.

The album was recorded at Electric Lady Studios and produced by John Cale of The Velvet Underground, featuring Czech-American guitarist Ivan Král, Smith’s collaborator and friend who passed away in 2020.

Few other artists can light up big stages with their huge presence as perfectly as Patti Smith.

“If you go on stage, you have to put yourself at risk,” Leonard Cohen once said, and there is hardly an artist who embodies this claim as perfectly as Patti Smith: her concerts are one-of-a-kind performances.

Audiences can experience the next step in the artist’s transformation from punk icon to wise but still fierce, sometimes downright angry, combative shaman.

Patti Smith is not only one of the great icons of rock music, but also of literature.

In addition to Patti Smith herself, the band also includes Jackson Smith (guitar), Tony Shanahan (keyboards/bass) and Seb Rochford (drums).
