Irie Révoltés are back from the dead and returning to Mighty Sounds

This is the news we've been secretly hoping for for years - Irie Révoltés are back! Only a few bands are so closely associated with the Mighty Sounds festival. We were there when they started their musical career in Heidelberg after 2000, when they started to gather fans. We too were instantly fascinated by their energy and fusion of punk, reggae, ska and hip-hop that resulted in an explosive and highly infectious musical mix. From the start, they were also known for their clever and socially critical lyrics. At the Mighty Sounds festival, they regularly provided one of the musical highlights of the year.

We followed them through their entire musical life, which was exactly the kind of life that many bands can only dream of. They played for 17 years, released 5 albums, participated in countless political events and played over 500 concerts in 25 countries. That's why we were really sad when they announced the end of their existence in 2017; after that they still played an excellent concert in the sold out big hall of Lucerna in Prague. But now our dreams are coming true. Irie Révoltés have secretly baked a comeback and this is an opportunity we couldn't let slip through our fingers. This is a matter of the heart. Irie Révoltés are back in full force, look forward to seeing them in Tábor at the 19th edition of Mighty Sounds!
