David Kleňha

jazz singer

I’m a jazz singer working to bring new energy to the Czech jazz scene. I bring this genre to stages and theatres with a modern twist, aiming to reach younger audiences and prove that jazz can be a symbol of youth and freshness too.

“Jazz isn’t just for old-timers – young guys can swing too!”

About me

Jazz has fascinated me since childhood, and I always dreamed of becoming part of it. Thanks to my studies in voice and piano, I’m now living that dream – turning a lifelong love of music into a real experience for the audience with every performance.

You can regularly catch me in jazz bars, clubs and theatres. I see my youth as an advantage – it lets me blend jazz with a fresh, modern edge. My goal is to bring this genre closer to younger generations and show that jazz still has its place today.

Where do I sing?

I sing Jazz in Prague and in my homeland Karlovy Vary Region.

Jazz Trio

Jazz Trio

I perform with my own ensemble alongside leading jazz musicians – our repertoire includes swing standards as well as lesser-known melodies in my own distinctive arrangements.

The most popular lineup is the Jazz Trio. Depending on the nature of the event, we also perform in a more intimate setting as a Jazz Duo, with piano or guitar.

Jazz Quartet

Jazz Quartet

The expanded lineup for a ball or corporate party is the Jazz Quartet, featuring vocals, piano, double bass and drums. For larger, more prestigious events, we expand the lineup to a Jazz Quintet with a horn section.

Big Band Karlovy Vary

Big Band
Karlovy Vary

Since 2018 I’m a proud member of this breathtaking 19-member ensemble under the leadership of Zdeněk Krám. Every year we play over 30 live concerts together, not only in the theatre. I appreciate that I can be a member of such a group, thanks to which I gain unforgettable experiences and, above all, valuable experience.
