The Prostitutes were formed in 2004 in Prague. The eponymous EP put the band on the map, the albums "Get Me Out Of Here" and especially "Hometown Zombies" allowed the band to expand their domestic success abroad. The Prostitutes went on a successful tour in Spain, played several times in Austria, Slovakia, Romania, Germany. They regularly appear at the main domestic festivals, they played at the Slovak Pohoda, Wave Gothic Treffen in Leipzig, Berlin Insane in Volksbühne, in Prague at the official celebration of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall or this year at the Bratislava BatCave Party.
The Prostitutes' stylistic mix is primarily based on post-punk and influenced by indie rock, country music, electronica and experimental and alternative rock. This, along with exceptionally live and energetic shows, is the main reason why the band is appreciated by both music publicists and the ever-growing legions of fans.

German radios broadcast the songs "Sunshine", "Don't Give A Damn", "Leave It Like It Is a Boom". In November 2009, bassist Adam Piaf, otherwise known as a member of the Calm Season project, became a new member of the band.
