BAJZEL - Piotr Piasecki —
Bajzel (meaning: mess) is the purest definition of “one man show” and “one man band”. He is a band. He is a musical chameleon tap dancing on pedals, live-looping guitar, bass and beats into virtuosic alternative art-rock exhilaration.

Key facts: His first LP was a breakthrough. Newsweek gave him a 2-page spread and hailed as best promising alternative artist. His video for “Window” won the director prize at Yach Film Music Video Awards (also was included in the compilation Woodstock Film Festival 2008). Bajzel took part in such festivals as SXSW Festival (USA), OFF-festival (PL) and Heineken Opener (PL). He was also invited to play live on MTV Iggy in New York.
Music genre: It’s hard to characterize with one accurate determination any music, but some people have tried to describe Bajzel’s music, they included these terms:
- blend of experimental, unpredictable, whimsical garage, indie, sexy electro and hints of folk - mixture of electro-infused rock - virtuosic alternative art-rock exhilaration - distortion-packed dance - rock and electronic madness.

Foxgang —
— Ryan Denton (vocals), Joe Brand (guitar), Kevin Dunne (drums), and a cat named Wojtek "Bala" Balawender are Foxgang.

Since forming in 2005 in Krakow, Poland, Foxgang have called many cities their home: Krakow, Edinburgh and now Glasgow, Scotland. But these fine gents bring with them some of the most interesting tunes wherever they go. Their unique mixture of punk attitude, rock, rockabilly and indie music, plus their ultra-cool stage presence has led to a huge number of followers. As of October 2008, they have played over 300 gigs.
Past band members include: Lucas Doolan (Keys/Guitar), Ian Jenkins (Trumpet), Allan Ferguson (Bass), Thomas Carter and Rafal Kaczmarek.
Foxgang once hosted an official website, which is now down for the count. The most official site we have for them is their MySpace, which has a few of their tracks available to download for free. For an almost complete collection of Fox Gang songs (streaming only) see their profile at The Roxy League.

PL version
Bajzel
— Piotr Piasecki to człowiek orkiestra niemieszczący się w jakichkolwiek schematach czy gatunkach muzycznych. Sam pisze teksty, tworzy muzykę, śpiewa, gra, recytuje. Zagrał już kilkaset koncertów w kraju i za granicą. Grał trasy m.in z Pogodno, Kasią Nosowską, Strachy Na Lachy, Lao Che. Przy pomocy zapętlania sampli perkusyjnych, gitar i wokali śpiewanych na żywo tworzy muzykę przypominającą kilkuosobowy zespół. Od 2011 roku wraz z Jackiem Budyniem Szymkiewiczem (Pogodno) tworzą duet Babu Król, z którym również stale koncertują.
