This is directly connected with the group’s spirit – they live and work as if it was a small, loving family.The group was founded in 1997 in Szczecin, Poland. Passion for the traditional music and hard work let them create their own style and original sound.Their acoustic songs have been inspired wholly by Oriental culture, Balkan folklore – Macedonian and Romanian.
