Friday Live: Australian band Amistat put a twist on an old classic
Australian band Amistat joined us on Friday for a live performance of their 'Eye Of The Tiger' rendition.
Twin brothers Josef and Jan Prasil were born in Germany and raised in Italy. With parents originating from the Czech Republic and Australia, they eventually moved to Australia to further propel their music careers. The duo relocated back to Europe in 2019.
On Friday, the brothers joined the Breakfast with Martin Bester team for a live performance and to talk about their upcoming performance at 'ParkLive'.
Watch their full performance here:
The ParkLive Gourmet Food & Music Festival is taking place Saturday, 5 November, at Marks Park in Emmarentia.

Since 2012, Amistat has released four EPs: ‘It’s Not Words’, ‘Somewhere Sometime’, ‘Nostalgia’, and ‘Love and Light’, and their debut album, ‘Parley’, which saw them embark on a number of Australian and European tours including performances at some of Australia's finest festivals, such as Woodford Folk Festival, National Folk Festival, Fairbridge, and Nannup.
The duo won the Marton Guitar Emerging Artist of the Year 2018 Award at the Port Fairy Folk Festival 2018.
