Hello brothers and sisters Slovaks, Sława!
​
I wonder if there would be anyone on this reddit who could recommend me bands that play Slovak folk music or modern music inspired by folk/traditional. I especially care about such groups that refer to Slavic culture, religion and gods.
​
I am looking for something like, for example, Lelek from Poland:

Hrdza and Arzén are my favourite.
There is also Strigôň.

I like this one: [https://youtu.be/l-SbeLu1-kw](https://youtu.be/l-SbeLu1-kw)
And also possibly this album by Zuzana Mojžišová, those are folk songs with a new, modern arrangement: [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kZcgOZ2Kd48veJLgU5N0SEDlg1OLcuc3E&playnext=1&index=1](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kZcgOZ2Kd48veJLgU5N0SEDlg1OLcuc3E&playnext=1&index=1)
And this last one is not exactly folk, but it is a an early 20th century poem by the Slovak poet Ivan Krasko set to music: https://youtu.be/gmS2__EIvvQ
