About Me


We are From 50° 05’ 00" N 019° 55’ 00" E
We play. Music Now.
Our inspirations far behind us,
Our perspiration stains the walls
We generate some sound positions
Answer lightning when it calls
So throw your calculators out the window
As the temperature slowly falls
For luck’s trick is wisdom’s laughter
And we slip slowly down the halls
Everything’s In Formation
You’ve Found Eluktrick’s Station
ELUKTRICK is a band about ideas, emotions, experiments and experiences forged by the fires of fate. ELUKTRICK was a luck trick – formed after a chance meeting of an aspiring American songwriter and a perspiring Polish guitar wizard in the crowded shadows of Krakow – old cool, so. From the outset the band was an anachronistic mélange of styles and histories where lack of a common language promoted an ever more uncommon sound.
ELUKTRICK found their groove and honed their vision by unapologetically mixing genres and choosing to constantly challenge accepted norms and formulas of the rock band format. ELUKTRICK can be as relentlessly energetic and improvisational as a high-powered avant-jazz troupe and as lyrically provocative, delicately orchestrated and musically progressive as some of the best independent rock groups of the past and present.
In the last nine months ELUKTRICK have been performing in some of the best clubs in Krakow, Warsaw, Poznan, Katowice and Wroclaw. They released their first EP – Alergenic– in October 2006 and filmed their first Music video in December 2006. ELUKTRICK is booking gigs across Poland for April and May and booking festivals across Europe for Spring/Summer 2008.
