TOM SKINNER

British drummer, composer and producer Tom Skinner is coming to Prague with his solo project Voices of Bishara. Skinner has been a key figure in London's underground music scene for two decades – co-founder of the groundbreaking Sons of Kemet, member of the experimental rock band The Smile (with Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood) and collaborator with artists such as Grace Jones, Floating Points and Nubya Garcia. His debut solo album Voices of Bishara (2022), released through Brownswood, International Anthem and Nonesuch Records, blends chamber jazz, post-dub and African influences and was hailed by critics as one of the best jazz albums of the year. The album was recorded live in one room with friends including Shabaka Hutchings and Nubya Garcia, then cut up and rearranged into new loops and sonic landscapes. In autumn 2025, Skinner released his second solo album Kaleidoscopic Visions with a meditative atmosphere and rich harmonic lines. The concert takes place in the Great Hall of Palác Akropolis.
