Pidżama Porno
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pidżama Porno was one of the most popular Polish punk-rock/reggae/ska bands. It was disbanded on December 9, 2007, after 20 years of existence.
The band was founded in December 1987 in Poznan, by Krzysztof “Grabaz” Grabowski and Andrzej “Kozak” Kozakiewicz, students of Poznan University, who originally come from the town of Pila. Two years later it recorded first material, named “Ulice jak stygmaty” (“Streets like stygmas”). The band played at the Jarocin Festival, and in 1990 went on a tour to Czechoslovakia, as the first underground group from Poland.
In 1990 Pidzama Porno recorded second album “Futurista”, which was warmly welcomed by fans, and to this day is very popular among Polish listeners. Soon afterwards the group disbanded to return in 1995. Its first material recorded after the break, “Zamiast burzy” (“Instead of storm”) was very popular and made the band famous. Pidzama Porno started playing numerous concerts across Poland as well as Europe. Its songs were frequently played by various radio stations and subsequent albums confirmed band’s popularity. Also, intelligent lyrics written by Grabowski, greatly helped in establishing group’s position.
In late 2007, just before dissolution, band’s personnel consisted of:
- Krzysztof "Grabaz" Grabowski – voice, lyrics,
- Andrzej "Kozak" Kozakiewicz – guitar,
- Slawek "Dziadek" Mizerkiewicz – guitar,
- Julian "Julo" Piotrowiak – bass guitar,
- Rafal "Kuzyn" Piotrowiak – drums.
