The British band gives concerts in our country quite regularly and it is hardly surprising, after all, they have a devoted fan base in Poland. Last year, during a performance at the Orange Warsaw Festival, Matty Healy announced the group’s return from the stage. “Still… At Their Very Best” – this is the title The 1975 has been successfully performing since the end of last year. The American part of the tour ended in January, and its effects can be appreciated on the album recording the concert in New York, released on streaming services. The Polish performance is part of the European part of “Still… At Their Very Best”, which began in February in Glasgow. It’s going to be a great evening, especially since the show prepared by the band is more than just a rock concert. It is a true multimedia spectacle directed by the singer of The 1975.
When they made their successful debut four years ago, many people were astonished that such hit indie rock sounds did not come from London or Manchester, but from the small town of Hamm in western Germany.

Neat, melodic compositions, full of lively riffs and tasty arrangements, win the group more and more fans.
Last year’s performance by Tom Odell during the first edition of the Inside Seaside festival was one of the highlights of the event. At the end of January, the musician’s new, long-awaited album “Black Friday” was released. A beautiful, almost intimate collection of songs captivates you from the first sounds. The author of the famous hit “Another Love” went on a tour to promote his latest work. The Warsaw concert will be one of the stops on his European tour, which will end at the Roundhouse in London. Odell is accompanied by the young British duo Wasia Project, who have released the EP “how can i pretend?”.

The special guest will be Mammoth WVH, a group led by the son of the late Van Halen guitarist, Wolfgang Van Halen.
Another artist who regularly visits our country and, as he repeatedly emphasizes, feels at home here. No wonder – after all, Polish blood flows in Jacek Savoretti’s veins. His concerts on the tour promoting the “Europiana” album were extremely popular. This time, the musician will certainly present, apart from well-known hits, recordings from the upcoming album “Miss Italia”. The first album in the discography sung entirely in Italian will be released on May 10 and will be Savoretti’s artistic journey to his family roots.

During concerts, The Kills promotes their latest release “God Games”, which premiered in October 2023. The musicians are known for their ability to combine genres and create an amazing musical mix, thanks to which they set new directions for the development of rock style.
