Experience the vibrant fusion of Polish and Indian musical talents as they unite for an improvisational live session titled "Beyond The Borders," a heartfelt ode to global peace. Join us at Skinny Mo’s in Kolkata on Wednesday, April 24th, for an unforgettable evening.

Presented by Skinny Mo’s and Jazz Po Polsku, this special collaboration features a dynamic ensemble freshly formed in Kolkata. The lineup includes Soumyadeep Murshidabadi on vocals, Piotr Damasiewicz on trumpet, Kuba Wójcik on guitar, Kingshook Biswas on tabla, Debjit Mahalanobis on bass, and Nilansuk Dutta on various percussions.

"We aim to transcend musical and mental boundaries by embracing diverse cultures and environments. Through our music, we seek to foster meaningful connections with local Kolkata musicians, bridging the gap between different musical worlds," shares Kuba Wójcik. Piotr Damasiewicz echoes, "Our impromptu collaboration has evolved into a profound artistic journey. This session is dedicated to a cause close to our hearts - global peace. We believe in sending a resounding message that unity and harmony transcend all differences, be they religious, political, or social."

The Murshidabadi-Damasiewicz-Wójcik-Biswas-Mahalanobis-Dutta collective represents a blend of Polish and Indian musical traditions, delving into the rich tapestry of cultural diversity and spiritual exploration at the core of human civilization. Their performances weave intricate musical narratives, imbued with symbolism and meaning, while emphasizing a connection to nature and fostering direct multicultural exchanges.

Embarking on a global concert tour spanning four continents, this initiative launched in May 2023 and is set to continue until 2025, encompassing over 60 events across 10 countries, featuring 12 diverse bands.
