Jaroslav Jeroným Neduha (7 August 1945 – 25 November 2024) was a Czech singer-songwriter. In 1967, he appeared in Juraj Herz's film Kulhavý ďábel and subsequently became a professional actor in small roles. He then starred in several other films including Jiří Suchý's Nevěsta where he also sang.[1] He formed Extempore in 1970, originally a folk band that later transformed into a rock band (1974). He left the band in 1978.[2] In 1983, he was forced to leave Czechoslovakia. He then lived in Vienna until 1990 when he returned to Czechoslovakia and reformed Extempore. In 2016, he released his memoirs Životaběh.[3]
