Biography
History
We are a maritime-folk group from Wrocław. We have large stage experience – from many years we play concerts on big and small stages in Europe and USA. We play our own, original music. At our concerts we show what is unique in Polish maritime music – the world of the sea seen through the eyes
of women, inspired by Irish folk.
We began our maritime – shanty career on the 4th of July 2003, when we attended a maritime song festival for the first time. Later many musicians passed through the group. Each of them put
a piece of themselves into our music, thanks to which many new compositions and song arrangements were created, which are played to this day. Then we won a few important awards and started playing at festivals and concerts all over Poland.
A few years ago started our adventure beyond polish borders too
– since then we visited with our music Germany, France,
England, Norway, Czech Republic and the USA.
