Ciśnienie, which means ‘pressure’ in Polish, is a blend of post-rock, orchestral music, and repetitive jazz, drawing inspiration from a range of artists including Swans, Fire! Orchestra, Mogwai, Arvo Pärt, and H.M. Górecki. Baritone saxophone, violin, and piano blend with heavily distorted bass and frenetic drumming, creating uniquely colorful tones. They are currently promoting their new album Zwierzakom, released on December 30, 2023. To date, Ciśnienie has performed over 100 concerts in Poland, Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, and the Czech Republic, including appearances at ESNS Eurosonic Noorderslag (NL), Enjoy Jazz Festival (DE), Garana Jazz Fest (RO), Katowice JazzArt Festival (PL), Soundrive Festival (PL), Porta Jazz (PT), Czech Music Crossroads, and Hradecky Slunovrat (CZ). Their next stop, of course, is SHIP 2024.
