Dianoya

A common passion, inspiration and way of seeing the world led, in June 2008, two friends - guitarist Janek Niedzielski and vocalist Filip Zielinski - to join forces on a project called Dianoya. Their musical pathways had previously crossed many times, but it was not until Dianoya that they began to compose together. Before long they assembled a full band: longtime friend and drummer Łukasz Chmielinski; bassist Adam Pierzchała; and at the end of the year guitarist Maciej Papalski.

Attica

There are at least two bands by the name of Attica 01. The ATTICA project started in September 2002 in Brussels, Belgium. It’s about music that is both spontaneous and solid, free spirited whilst still being conscious of its acts. ATTICA' s intention is to offer the audience an intuitive experience that evolves between the romantic and the soft, the angry and the heavy, the weird and the wonderful. It pulls people into evocative or troubling soundscapes with melodies that remind you that Attica is a rock band, to dance to, to sing along with, to relate to.
