Jana Ctverackova - Co Si Muzete Zahrat Anglicky Instant

While many Czech actors shy away from English-language roles due to accent or a lack of training, Čtveráčková has made it a defining pillar of her professional identity. This feature explores how a graduate of DAMU (Prague’s Academy of Performing Arts) became one of the most sought-after bilingual actors in the country, what “playing in English” actually entails for her, and why this skill has reshaped her career trajectory.

EXCLUSIVE / SANTA ANA WINDS

SANTA ANA WINDS – Steel Breeze (2021) *HQ* Out of print

SANTA ANA WINDS is a unique project, both in its approach and in its development. The main idea is to take a handful of little-known AOR songs from big names inside and outside of the melodic rock field, and breathe new life into them through a careful cast of top-level musicians. All this through a purely AOR filter and made with the greatest care and taste.
“Steel Breeze” is the 2nd release under the SANTA ANA WINDS moniker, with new musicians and a different producer – by Dave Draper, who also perform an array of instruments – bringing a new sound, plus talented vocalists like J.D. Kelly (From The Fire), Steevi Jaimz (ex Tigertailz) and Vicky Jackson.
Limited to 500 copies, SANTA ANA WINDS’ ”Steel Breeze” is already sold out.
These are awesome classy AOR songs written by AOR gurus like Janet Morrison Minto, Pamela Barlow, R. Carter, etc…

DAVID A SAYLOR / SANTA ANA WINDS

SANTA ANA WINDS – Santa Ana Winds (2016) out of print

SANTA ANA WINDS is the self-titled debut from the project created by AOR Blvd Records and conducted by the great David A. Saylor (in his last official recording) and long time collaborator keyboardist John Dewsbury.
“Santa Ana Winds” features three lead vocalists; David Saylor himself, Brad Henshaw (Road Kings) and newbie Rebecca Owen. Of course, this is pure AOR in the best ’80s tradition. The idea was to carefully select & record obscure AOR songs from the past – some of them never officially released and only known as demos – with a new feeling and arrangements.
Saylor’s vocals did not need introduction to AOR fans, but I have to mention Brad Henshaw as a true revelation as AOR singer, plus Rebecca Own provides the sweet female touch, while Saylor’s daughter Romany does some backing vocals.
