THE ROADSBio
Ray and Ondrej are not averse to getting dressed up for music videos, or being wrapped in silver paper and dragging their mates in to point cameras at them.
They reached no.7 in the t-music chart in April 2010 with "Bells", and 4th in the Czech Meduza chart. Their debut album went on sale Feb 09, the follow up in March 2010 under the RGM (CZ) label in the Czech Republic. A 3rd is planned if a bigger label can be found for wider release, and the band also has a solid acoustic repertoire to match their electric live sets. Find THE ROADS live at any of the shows listed here, they don't suck!.
What people are saying about THE ROADS:
"Imagine, that Neil Young in the Beat Generation worked with the Monkeys to make a rock musical. This is the debut album of The Roads. Within this Czech-British combination we find the finest retro beat and indie rock with synth-pop...sometimes rocking pop, sometimes playful melancholy...this is clearly a quintet with good songwriters at work here..."
Uncle Sallys, CD review
"Take the best of well known English guitar bands, mix it with the Beatles and Bowie from the 70s, add a little of their personlised style and you have THE ROADS album, which will hit you immediately, and will keep you coming back for more.”
Vojtěch Kůgel, musiczone.cz
"these guys will succeed, that's for sure... since they have three music markets open to them now, they only have to push a little harder to get to the top of the charts."
Innocence Music Server
"bands which are able to connect music from the past with the present are tough to find! THE ROADS self-titled debut album accomplishes this in unbelievable fashion. And, within their catchy songwriting we can hear influences of The Beatles, which is high praise indeed."
Josef Rauvolf, SEDM magazine

Bio
The Roads play music. They don't play experimental crap played with a saw and an ironing board, and they don't play 3-chord American punk rock meaningless rubbish either. They play songs people sing in the bathroom the morning after their show. The band reached no.7 in the t-music chart in April 2010 with "Bells", and 4th in the Czech Meduza chart. Their debut album went on sale Feb 09, the follow up album is completed and awaiting the right deal :) Don't limit yourself to recordings and videos, find THE ROADS live at any of the shows listed here.
