Cafe Stilo is back!
(5.01.2012) Cafe Stilo is back! Unfortunatelly, you have to know Polish language, to fully understand what's going on, but you can listen just enjoying the sound of Zuza' voice - as a storyteller and violin player. :-) So please, click on "Cafe Stilo" in main menu. .
Meeting with ex
(16.12.2011) There were not many people at UrsynOFF last Sunday but two visitors were really special! Janusz Kossakowski, our ex-drummer, the STILO-member from "Szukaj!" album, with his daughter. Probably we saw Janusz last time in June 2005, on the occasion of recording tv programme "Anioł przychodzi wieczorem". Then Janusz went abroad, and till this Fall was outside Poland. .
A little bit of photos and drawings
(6.12.2011) We've just added some photos from our last, October' gig, at Skład Butelek club. They were taken by our new co-working photographers - Magda Mościcka and Robert Wierzbicki. We hope you'll like their point of view on our band. And here you got link to the interview with Polish artist workin' in Lisbon, Joanna Łątka, who were the author of the drawing →
Penultimate night – or we play again!
(29.11.2011) Penultimate - in the "Opowieści Kamieni Etno Tour" context, of course. The last gig of this project will take place in January but now we are talkin' 'bout the December' concert at UrsynOff club (11.12.2011). We return to this fine venue after few months. It's so good that there are still places where we can play our music live - →
Thanx for UrsynOFF and back to Skład Butelek club!
(12.10.2011) Cheers to all of you, who arrived in UrsynOFF club to see our performance at the end of September. It was really beautifull to play for you (see photo below, taken by Robert Wierzbicki).

ETNO TOUR on stage again!
(9.09.2011) At last, after several months of silence we can come back on stage with our "Opowieści Kamieni Etno Tour"! The time will tell if this will be a one-off gig or maybe we will be able to organise several concerts before the project will cease - the closure is planned for the end of this year. Then we are going to record a →

“Janošik” in Plock
(23.08.2010) Although creating music to a silent movie „Janosik” seemed to be not an easy task for us at first, it turned out not so bad… A lot of songs from our repertoire (or parts of the songs) were suitable and they sounded as if they had been written especially for this movie! So actually we had to compose only one new, →
Silent movie at last
(22.07.2010) Old dreams sometimes come true, though often in a slightly different shape. Fundacja Rozwoju Sztuki Filmowej offered us to play for a silent movie „Janošik”, made in Czech Republic before the Second World War. We have always wanted to do something like this. So why different shape? Our performance should have a lot of clear „highland” elements. Well, it is →
CBA taken
(26.06.2010) So CBA is a fact… We hope we were able to create interesting stage triumvirate, in which every artists’ performances were good contrapuncted by common jams – and the last jam, played by all musicians, was in fact the highest point of the three hour long concert. There is no doubt that main heroes of this event were really all playing and/or →

At this concert out long time member, Sylwia Świątkowska (Warsaw Village Band), will officially →
After the jubilee at Mam Ochotę
(19.05.2010) Day after such a gig all hearts are beating stronger – amongst musicians and listeners, we hope. Yesterday, on the occasion of 10th anniversary of first STILO’ concert, we did at Klubokawiarnia Mam Ochotę club (Warsaw) something that was hard to imagine for such a long time. We performed on one stage with Alpago Polat and Serhan Kızılpınar – two Turkish →

We might have some special attractions for you that night? We’ll →
Opowieści Kamieni live
(1.04.2010) So first gigs of "Opowieści Kamieni Etno Tour 2010" are behind us. As we see the reactions of the audience, it was worth to do that project. There is some kind of magic on the scene and this is what we were looking for! Every concert is slightly different and we are going to keep with that idea in the future. At the beginning, in Warsaw Pracovnia club, it looked →

Different kinds of magic
Fot. Ewa Hawryluk-Stasiak (14.05.2008) We are back from Prague (Czech Republic) right now, where we had played in well known jazz club U Maleho Glena - second time in our career, with contribution of Polish Institut again. When we play in this town, we always got some trouble. First time, few years ago, we had to go there without our violinist. Now we →

Between walls
(1.06.2006) We are back from Torun, where we had played in very nice place - exactly between old city walls, near Podgórna street, in a summer garden of Towarzystwo Miast Bliźniaczych Miasta Torunia. We recommend this place for all playing and listening. Next gig is planned on Saturday 17th June in Warsaw. It will be the first capital show of new line-up, →
Golem Tour za nami
(15.04.2006) WISE AND GOOD EASTER FOR ALL!!! Our minitour Golem Tour is over. It was really special time for us. Firstly, Janusz Żukowski (sax, flute) made his debut as a STILO member. He played very good, expressively joining his jazzy notes with our rock and ethno flavor. Secondly, we made our first appearance in Prague (Czech Republic), in a really well-known jazz club U Maleho →
New ways without Damian
(13.01.2006) Thanx for all of you who came to first two gigs of new-old Stilo - at Jadłodajnia Filozoficzna club (Warsaw) and Dom Środowisk Twórczych (Kielce). Your warm support was really important for us. Kielce, December 2005. Fot. Ewa Hawryluk-Stasiak And what about Damian' story? He is not playing with us anymore for very simple reason - lack of time. He is very busy person who →
