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.
