Lojzo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lojzo (also LOJZO) is a folk music group from Bratislava, Slovakia. It was formed in 1982 in Czechoslovakia by Marián Kochanský. The name is an backronym for "Ludový Orchester Jednoduchej Zábavy Obyvateľstva" ("Folk orchestra for simple entertainment of population"). At the same time "Lojzo" is a diminutive form of the name Alojz (i.e., Aloysius, Lewis).[1][2]

In 1987, the Czechoslovak popularity chart Zlatý Slavík placed the group 22nd (6th among Slovak musicians), and in 1998 the Slovak Slávik placed it 4th.
