Biography

There are multiple artist called Lu:

1) LU is a czech band, from the small town Koprivnice, where a new young music scene blossoms. They play alternative rock, with smashy guitar spaces but even sweet melodies. Only the eponymous album Lu (2003), but a new album is planned on autumn 2006. Releasing on Piper Records.
LU were formed in 2002 by these members: Zbyněk Machetanz (guitar, vocals, sampling), Martin Pýcha (guitar), Martin Vašica (bass guitar, vocals), Hynek Kovář (drums). Their eponymous debut album was released in 2003 at Piper Records and got many excellent reviews in the press. The band recorded the album on their own in an improvised home studio. The recording and mix have been done by Pavel Pohořelský (Valerian’s Future, Vítrholc, Nesselsdorf). In the following months, LU gave concerts with Folk3Mail, Nierika, OTK, C, Selfbrush, Sunshine, Priessnitz, Tata Bojs, Enon and others. As LU were left by Martin Pýcha in 2004, the missing guitar was substituted with Honza Szabó’s keyboard and Adam Kovář’s violoncello. In this cast they took part in Malá Alternativa contest and won. Subsequently, a report about the band was shown on TV in broadcast Paskvil.

In 2007 the band was left by drummer Hynek Kovář and Tomáš Neuwerth (Nierika, Umakart, Údery Údy, Milano) was chosen to be the new support of the team. In June 2009 Martin Vašica left the band too.
