Experience the infectious energy of Heľenine Oči as they take the stage at the Dobrý Festival 2023, held at the picturesque Delňa recreational area on the outskirts of Prešov in eastern Slovakia. On June 9, 2023, the band treated the audience to a lively performance of “Uhorčík,” a track from their studio double-CD album “Vajco” released in 2017.

Uhorčík,” inspired by the legendary Slovakian highwayman Tomáš Uhorčík, offers a unique blend of humor and history. Uhorčík, the right hand of the famed Juraj Jánošík, is celebrated in Slovakian folklore as a Robin Hood-like figure who redistributed wealth from the affluent to the less fortunate.

Heľenine Oči, known for their lighthearted and witty approach to storytelling, infuse the song with playful lyrics that explore the joys and tribulations of life as an outlaw. Despite its roots in a serious historical figure, “Uhorčík” maintains an entertaining and humorous tone throughout.

The live performance at Dobrý Festival captures the band’s dynamic stage presence and the vibrant atmosphere of the event. The audience is treated to the catchy and memorable chorus featuring the playful refrain “djagadaj daj daj daj djagadaj,” a nonsensical phrase that, both in language and melody, pays homage to traditional folk music in a humorous and endearing way.

Join Heľenine Oči on a musical journey that blends history, humor, and folk-inspired melodies, as they bring “Uhorčík” to life in this unforgettable live performance at Dobrý Festival 2023.
