Kar Češ Brass Band is a flourishing brass band from Cerkno. The band plays since 1998 and has been performing all around Slovenia. The group looks for inspiration mostly in street music of historic New Orleans, evergreen melodies of former Yugoslavia and distilled products of home fruit.

From the outset its repertoire consisted of 'whatever you want' (kar češ) genres of music, from Alpine folk music to traditional gypsy compositions, from cartoon music to adaptations of well-known rock hits.

The band has played all around Slovenia, at various parties and festivals including the Lace Festival, Idrija, Dragon Festival, Postojna, Magdalena International Festival of Creative Communication in Maribor, Ana Desetnica International Street Theatre Festival, Jazz Cerkno Festival and KoupaFest.
