October 13, 2023 BY Emma Orland
Today, Amistat, the exceptional German born musical duo comprising of twin brothers Josef and Jan Prasil, return with a lush heartfelt song, “Same Old Eyes.” Taking listeners on a journey, “Same Old Eyes” is a personal story filled with emotions as Josef and Jan reflect and explore their past experience on their father’s health after his decision to retire. “Same Old Eyes” follows the duo’s vibrancy as they effortlessly shined on their March 2023 EP, colour in life. They share, “‘Same Old Eyes’ was inspired by our father and his journey to find his purpose again after recently retiring. He has been battling both physical pains and mental health challenges ever since his motorbike accident 15 years ago.” “Same Old Eyes” is available on all digital streaming platforms here: https://amistat.ffm.to/sameoldeyes.

Boasting a diverse heritage that spans across Germany, Italy, the Czech Republic, and Australia, Amistat’s unique background enrich their music, infusing it with a truly global essence. As twin brothers, Josef and Jan Prasil, share an unspoken and unexplainable bond best sung aloud. The power of this bond courses through their familial harmonies and eloquent songcraft accented by individual idiosyncrasies. Songs unfold like stories with two narrators, allowing both voices space to ring out.
The pair developed a signature style over the course of a series of independent EPs highlighted by singles such as “Far From Home,” which generated over 1.6 million Spotify streams and counting. Along the way, they toured across Australia, the UK, and Europe in addition to gracing the bills of Woodford Folk Festival, National Folk Festival, Fairbridge, and Nannup. 2021’s Still Alive EP boasted fan favorites “Listen to the Silence,” “Brave,” and “Build A Home,” generating over 5 million total streams.
