Mirka Novak

Mirka Novak, a multi-faceted artist from the Czech Republic, embodies the essence of versatility in the realm of music. Renowned as a vocalist, performer, and vocal coach, she also holds the position of CEO of a singing school that she founded in Pilsen.

Her musical journey has taken her across borders, with regular visits to the USA, where she collaborates with acclaimed musicians, such as Federico Gonzalez Pena and Tarus Mateen, enriching her skills and leaving a mark on international stages.

In 2018, her wealth of experiences led her to a pivotal moment as a motivational speaker on the prestigious TEDx Talks. Notably, she took on the role of coaching the Czech representative Aiko for the Eurovision competition in 2024, further enforcing her influence in the music industry.

In 2022, Mirka unveiled her debut album “Malbum” under the esteemed Slovak label Hevhetia. This groundbreaking work, crafted using a loop station, serves as a testament to her exploration of authenticity and self-expression through music. As a member of the ensemble HLASkontraBAS Oktet, Mirka embarked on an artistic journey to Iceland, supported by the EEA and Norway Grants. This two-week residency bore fruit with the recording of yet another album, “Kaleidoscapes,” under the most famous Czech publishing house, Animal Music. This album was nominated for the prestigious Czech music award Andel in the jazz category in 2024.

In 2024, Mirka, together with pianist Kristina Barta, opened the concert of newly crowned Grammy Award winner Nicole Zuraitis (Best Vocal Jazz Album) at the Antonín Dvořák Hall in Plzeň.

Onstage, Mirka Novak captivates audiences with her distinctive soulful voice and contemporary sound infused with an irresistible groove. Her musical prowess shines through, evident in the confident rhythms and improvised melodies that grace her performances.

 

“Impressive vocal timbre, precise intonation, the art of improvisation and scat, a wonderful feeling for swing and soul – these are all attributes that make Mirka exceptional and desirable.”

– Ivan Slaby, president of Jazz Without Limits Festival / Pilsen, CZE –

“Amazing Czech soul diva singing with the creativity and lightness of a real star.”
