Karolina is an award-winning Polish folk singer and multi-instrumentalist. She hails from Sub-Carpathia in South-Eastern Poland; plays accordion, hammered and mountain dulcimers to name a few. She has studied at Music and Art schools from the age of 6. Growing up in a family of traditional dancers and singers, her life was surrounded by folklore. Her repertoire includes songs she learned from her grandmother but also music of cultures and nomadic people that used to settle in her native region. Her songs tell stories of struggles of every day life, loss as well as love and celebration. She often uses the archaic “scream singing” - a method practiced in Eastern-European villages since pagan times that evolved along with the rural life and nature. Karolina regularly meets with elderly citizens of her native villages to record oldest songs, dances and stories of life on the Polish countryside during communism or II World War. She also regularly travels to various Eastern European countries and takes part in traditional music camps and workshops to deepen her knowledge of those cultures.
In 2011 Karolina received an award from the Polish Ministry of Culture and Heritage for her artistic achievements, and she was a laureate at Traditional Musician’s Tournament in Szczecin’s Philharmonic in 2021. Today she proudly represents her native culture at many events in the UK and Poland; she has performed i.e. at Birmingham Symphony Hall, Moseley Folk Festival and Migration Matters in Sheffield.
Banda in many Slavonic languages means “a group of noisy people” or simply the “bandits”. Karolina Wegrzyn & Banda are a unique ensemble show casing some of the most beautiful and dancy folk sounds of Eastern Europe. Ann Jones is an internationally renowned violinist performing classical to folk, balkan dance to gypsy punk. She is passionate about world folk and the connections between each countries music. Stephen Plummer, conservatoire trained percussionist and guitarist enjoys exploring the music of other cultures and sharing his passion with new audiences.
Together the band creates a powerful and energetic fusion of Eastern European sounds. They believe that music has the power to connect people across borders and cultures. They strive to evoke emotions and create meaningful connections with the audiences, to create a sense of community and shared history.
