All-men a cappella from Prague (Czech Republic)
Ch-tdz! has ten members, who sing classical as well as jazz, gospel and pop music. The artists are self-led with programming and musical direction coming from within the group itself, striving to be one of the best men acappella ensemble in the world. In concerts you can sense Ch-tdz!'s young spirit, a sence of humor and the joy of singing [so Happy] together.

History of the unpronounceable name
It all started as a joke (attempt to have a funny name), immitating the sound of a whip. But how should we write it? Ch-tdz! didn't give much thought to it, so later on, there were countless discussions / votings to change the name.

First concert
The idea to have such an all-male choir started in the heads of the two leading founders (Jaroslav Sindler and Filip Benes), who got together the first 10 people to start with an participate in the best competition in the Czech Republic - Jirkovsky Pisnovar. At the end of the rehearsal weekend Ch-tdz! had already hosted on a concert with all-women choir Furie. Furie asked Ch-tdz! to moderate the concert, which was then remembered as a concert with 10 moderators, because all Ch-tdz! got to moderate at least something. :-)

Attempts to change the name failed
There were many votings to change the original name, but the more we tried to change the unpronounceable name, the more it has sticked with us. So we took it as a feature - to have a unique name and now You can google us / search on YouTube under '''Ch-tdz! (with an unpronounceable name and an exclamation mark at the end)'''
