Brontosauři was a Czech ensemble specializing in folk and tramping music, established in 1972 by the brothers Jan and František Nedvěd. The group originated in Jílové u Prahy as a continuation of the band Toronto. Under the creative direction of the Nedvěd brothers, the band quickly gained significant attention, particularly following their notable achievement at the Porta Music Festival. Over time, additional musicians joined, many of whom had connections with the renowned group Spirituál kvintet. Brontosauři has secured an enduring reputation within Czech folk music history. The band ceased activities in 1994 after releasing their last album, Zahrádky.
