Voo Voo
A sophisticated blend of improvisational jazz, gritty rock, and poetic depth. It feels like a late-night conversation with a wise, slightly weathered friend.

Voo Voo is a cornerstone of the Polish alternative scene, formed in 1985 by Wojciech Waglewski. The band represents a unique intersection of rock, jazz fusion, and avant-garde folk.
Waglewski, as the primary songwriter and vocalist, has steered the group through decades of evolution, moving from the post-punk energy of the 1980s into more sophisticated, improvisational territories. Their sound identity is defined by Waglewski's baritone vocals and Mateusz Pospieszalski's versatile saxophone work. Culturally, Voo Voo occupies a space of high critical respect in Poland, often associated with intellectual depth and artistic integrity. They have influenced a wide range of artists, including Waglewski's sons, Fisz and Emade, who have integrated the band's experimental spirit into hip-hop and electronic contexts. The band is noted for its prolific output and its ability to maintain a consistent 'Voo Voo sound' while constantly absorbing new influences like drum and bass or nu jazz. Critical consensus views them as one of the most important Polish bands of the last forty years, bridging the gap between mainstream rock and the experimental underground.
