FUTURE FOLK
We blend dance music with highlander traditions. Michał Chyc - Olesiok and Szymon Chyc - Magdzin,
hailing from Zakopane, infuse their music with the traditional folk elements of the region, while Matt Kowalsky ensures a modern, polished compose and production style.

In 2023, the band underwent a significant change with the departure of vocalist Stanisław Karpiel-Bułecka, who was succeeded by the equally talented Michał Chyc - Olesiok, representing the voice of a new generation. In early 2024, the band released the single “Hej, Szalała…” featuring their new vocalist and began working on material for their next album.Future Folk is where tradition meets innovation, creating a sound that resonates with both the past and the present.
