The group's repertoire consists mainly of original songs by Jacek Kleyff set to music that is difficult to classify unambiguously – the instruments used steer the formation towards folk, though the songs – both old and new – are rooted in the tradition of sung poetry. The whole is held together by Kleyff's characteristic sense of humour, unchanged for nearly 50 years.
Jacek Kleyff (born 1947 in Warsaw) – Polish poet, composer, actor and painter. In 1969 he was one of three founders (alongside Michał Tarkowski and Janusz Weiss) of the "Salon of the Independent". He also created the Orchestra Na Zdrowie, with which he won, among other awards, the Golden Bug at the Przystanku Woodstock festival.
The group performs as a quartet: Jacek Kleyff (vocals, lead acoustic guitar, drumle, drums), Małgorzata Makowska (pedal harmonica, ukulele, vocals), Karol Gadzało (double bass, saw, vocals), Jakub "Kóba" Sojka (percussion, vocals).
The concert partners are GEMA and PROFOLIO companies.
