Anděl Awards
won by the band Wohnout.
The Angel Award (Anděl Award, Czech: cena Anděl) is a Czech music award issued by the Czech Academy of Popular Music. It is a successor of the Annual Czechoslovak Music Award established in 1991 in Czechoslovakia. Between 1992 and 1996, it was known Gramy, and the award categories are what the Grammy Award is to the United States, with the award including a ceramic gramophone statuette. Since 1997, it bears the current name, with the award including a statuette of an angel playing horn designed by sculptor Jaroslav Róna,[1] although the name of the award has been changed several times.
