Lumpeks

They drove through the Polish countryside in a car the size of a yogurt cup. The car radio was frantically playing the FM band. At each stop a meeting with families, musicians and farmers to collect the essence of traditional music. The Franco-Polish quartet Lumpeks has used this material to invent a music at the crossroads of jazz and traditional dance music from central Poland. After a first opus very well received by the critics and the public, the group comes back with a new repertoire – POLONEZ, collected directly from musicians during their various trips in the Polish countryside.
