“Traditional Polish songs, with their cutting vocals and meshed fiddles are the foundation of Warsaw Village Band’s repertory. But while their lineup is primarily acoustic – hand drums, hammered dilcimer, violins, cello – their sensibilities are modern. They hear dance -club drive and trancey echoes in the songs and they use recording studio techniques to heighten the central drones and eerie percussive sounds in their songs. Hints of reggae and guests like a scratching disc jockey should further infuriate purists”

…Conceptually, in some ways, a descendant of Trebunie-Tutki and the Twinkle Brothers’ 1992 Higher Heights - Twinkle Inna Polish Stylee album, though dubbier and modernised, Sploty is one of the WVB’s most appealing projects, and as I write this it’s number one in World Music Charts Europe.

A meeting of sound and image. The band joins forces with the Bui Sisters — a remarkable duo who have spent years exploring the limits of visual and sonic expression across multiple disciplines: from theatre and multimedia to artistic installations.
The result is a video art piece for the track "Oh, grey-feathered cuckooling" - a tale woven from sound and emotion, captured in a beautifully crafted visual form.
Press play and see for yourself.

Tomasz Krawczyk might be best known as the bassist of Paprika Korps, but he is also a visionary graphic designer, video creator, and animator.
His latest project showcases his artistic ingenuity, using AI as a tool to bring his creative vision to life. By blending traditional techniques with organic motifs and digital algorithms, he has crafted a visually striking and unique interpretation for the track “Time to reap” by WVB and Bassałyki.
The most prestigious association, World Music Charts Europe—a forum of 44 music journalists from 25 countries within the European Broadcasting Union (EBU)—has just published the February ranking of the best World Music albums. Our album "Twines” takes the gold! We are deeply moved and grateful.

“A very mature work with lots of energy. Another proof that we should have a closer look towards the Polish scene.”

The Band
With the women upfront and the guys in back, the group featured songs from their two recent albums, “People’s Spring” and “Uprooting.” Although the one-hour set was often dominated by noisy waves of rhythmic bowing from the two violin players, their string work frequently lacked melodic variety. But the other instruments, and especially the haunting female vocals, took up the slack.”
