Pan Lynx, a musical and artistic project of Michal Skořepa (ex-Stroy) and his cartoon alter ego – the mystical Pan Lynx. Pan Lynx is half lynx and half human, Michal. After appearing to Michal, he drew him into the depths of his own imaginary inner forest to create a debut album of self-discovery called “Kdo se bojí, musí do lesa”. Michal played practically all the instruments and vocals on the album, assisted by guests such as Michael Kocáb, Michal Pavlicek, brothers Homolové from Wohnout, Štěpán Smetáček and others. Musically, it is a pompous combination of “dirty” grunge guitars, decadent piano and expressive, almost musical vocals. We can hear references to bands like Pražský výběr, Queen or Alice In Chains. For live performances, Pan Lynx has chosen only the best musicians: Jan Lichtenberg (guitar), Josh Root (guitar), Filip Vavrička (keyboards), Zdeněk Imramovský (bass), Luboš Samek (drums).
Pan Lynx is inseparably linked with Michal’s unmistakable artistic handwriting, which is reflected in the very form of Mr. Lynx, in the hand-drawn music videos, but also in the merch and especially in the debut album, which has a very unconventional form.
Accept Michal’s invitation and let yourself be drawn into the forest!
