"Hudobné festivaly beriem aj ako miesto, kde objavím nejakú kapelu, ktorú vôbec nepoznám. Plusom je, ak ma tá kapela osloví. Toto platí v prípade bandy The Black Mary. Doteraz som nemal poňatia o ich existencií a pritom tak silný matroš. Tu trošku brutal, tu groove, cit pre spomalenie a potom zase pre skazonosnú rýchlosť. Veľmi dobrá vec a posúvam to ako malý tip, ak niekto hľadá práve niečo takéto."
The Black Mary was born in 2019 when drummer Lukas and guitarist Jari teamed up.
After Timi joined on vocals, Juan on the second guitar, and Alex on bass, they made their live debut in Prague in 2021.
The band’s name, suggested by Juan, refers to a Prague tram line known as “Černá Máry,” which once transported coffins, reflecting the band’s somber tone.
Following a hiatus, Cap joined on bass, Kubajz on vocals, and later Ondrej on the second guitar. Soon after, Timi returned to the band, taking Kubajz's place.
Their first EP was released in September 2024.
