About

TSA (Tajne Stowarzyszenie Abstynentów - "Teetotallers' Secret Association") is a Polish hard rock and heavy metal band founded in 1979 in Opole by guitarist Andrzej Nowak. Widely regarded as one of the pioneers of Polish heavy metal, the group broke through at the 1981 Jarocin Festival and built a massive following in the 1980s with vocalist Marek Piekarczyk at the helm. After multiple break-ups and reformations, the band continues to perform as TSA Dream Team following the death of founder Andrzej Nowak in January 2022.
