Grand Finale

Grand Finale Concert in Warsaw

2019-11-22 11:55:00

 

We are always celebrating our rock'n'roll roots, so each year we invite the public to enjoy a fantastic musical extravaganza. On the day of the Grand Finale, we organise a massive free concert, featuring some of the best-loved and best-known artists in the country. It's a great way to attract even more people to the city centre, where they can take part in our charitable drive.

This year, as we are moving our fundraising event to an entirely new location, we decided to make our Warsaw Grand Finale concert bigger and better than ever before!
We are going to feature artists who impressed the audience at Pol'and'Rock Festival this summer and are making huge waves on the Polish music scene.

Majka Jeżowska Band

 

Majka Jeżowska is best known for her prolific career as a children’s singer. Her upbeat songs are an instant hit with the younger audiences. Paired with wholesome lyrics and energetic melodies, Jeżowska’s hits include “A ja wolę moją mamę”, “Najpiękniejsza w klasie” and ”Od rana mam dobry humor”, to name a few. Her releases went platinum, and her shows are always sold out. We emphasise the fact that our festival is a safe space for everyone to have fun and we prepare activities for parents and their children. We think that Jeżowska's timeless, wholesome appeal will draw a diverse audience.

It can be argued that it was Chylińska’s rebellious attitude and her unique, wild quality of voice as well as piercing honesty and aggression of lyrics that were responsible for the band’s success. Chylińska received multiple Fryderyk Awards and award nominations (the equivalent of Grammy Awards in Poland) and was named vocalist and songwriter of the year numerous times.

Having left O.N.A. in 2004, she teamed up with some of her ex-band members to establish a new music project, Chylińska. In 2009 Agnieszka Chylińska embarked on a solo career and made some interesting creative choices – her first solo album was inspired by pop and dance music. Both this debut solo record and the following release went triple platinum. In 2018, while working as one of the judges of the famous “You Got Talent” show, she released a punk-music inspired album “Pink Punk”.
