Driven by a dynamic female lead vocal, November 2nd have established themselves as one of the Czech Republic‘s newest talents. Not only have they captured such prizes as the Jim Beam Music 'best new talent' award; they have also caught the attention of the Czech and European press.
The Prague based group composes and writes its own material in English. Their influences vary from rock, alternative to country. Several years of playing together have produced songs with strong melodies and moving lyrics.
In the Czech Republic, November 2nd have supported well-known bands and musicians like Alanis Morissette, Suzanne Vega, Spin Doctors, Reef, Bryan Adams, Dave Gahan and Crash Test Dummies. They have appeared on TV several times and nowadays they perform in clubs and open-air festivals around Europe and the US.
Their debut album called Midnight Desert (EMI/Escape) was released in 2002. That year, the band was nominated for the annual Czech Grammy awarded by the Academy of Popular Music, in the category of "new comer of the year". They were a runner up in this competition. November 2nd, however, did win the same category in a fan survey in Report music magazine and also on Radio Express.
November 2nd’s second release, Little Miss Behavin and the Troublemakers (EMI/Escape) was influenced by their stay in New York. The 10 song collection was recorded in classic analog style and mixed by none other than David Bianco of Mick Jagger, Santana and Tom Petty fame. One song was also mixed by Steve Walsh who has worked previously with Erasure and Greta Gaines. The album was mastered in Oasis Mastering in Los Angeles under the careful hands of Eddy Schreyer (Alice in Chains, Ben Harper, Tracy Chapman, Johnny Cash).
In its first week of release, Little Miss Behavin and the Troublemakers, immediately entered the Czech Top 40 and received rave reviews. Ócko, the 24 hour Czech music station, has nominated November 2nd in two of their yearly categories – group of the year and singer of the year.

Hi Sasha ! Megan ( last town chorus ) is a good friend of mine ! I am sure you will enjoy the show ! Too bad you won't be on the east coast. Any word from the local promoter yet on your supporting Suz ?
I strum these strings gently at first Chords and melody begin to melt For a moment they stay Only to disappear into change Change just as beautiful as the last.
My guitar... What feeling it inspires What beauty it creates If only for that moment Inviting all who listen Inviting all to see The amazing sounds and sights Strings stretched across rosewood.
Chords and melody Melting into Fiery reds and oranges Swirling whites and blues The echos of the last chords Still linger in the air. Sunset across the strings.
