What makes me a session drummer?
Past and present
In 2005 I played drums on the air for the first time. It was in a cyclical entertainment program released by the largest Polish television broadcaster - the public television (TVP). I knew there were still many such performances ahead of me before I would become a session musician. Over time, my portfolio has expanded with new titles and formats of TV productions. With no doubt I was on the right path. I took care of proper education and independently graduated from the two most important national education centers for musicians in the field of jazz and entertainment music.
Presently, I am one of the most recognizable Polish drummers, a drum collector and the owner of a modern recording studio, always friendly for all professional drummers from all over the world.
In my extensive collection you can find over 100 drum sets, over 200 custom snare drums and over 200 Meinl cymbals, for which I am the endorser. These possibilities motivate me even more to further develop and most of all allow me to record high-fidelity tracks and send them to producers working anywhere in the world.

Experience
The professional experience as a drummer I gained mostly at leading Polish TV stations in many entertainment programs realized under various titles, in various musical configurations - from a few person bands to large entertainment orchestras.
Currently, there are over 500 television productions in my portfolio. During last 15 years of my work it would be easier to point out known Polish artists which I have not met on stage than those with whom I have performed.
In 2014 I started a cooperation with one of the leading Polish entertainment orchestras, which has been providing (in recent years) the musical setting of the largest Polish music festival (KFPP Opole), a festivity of Polish song with over 55 years of tradition. Although it definitely wasn't the first huge TV event for me - which was broadcasted to millions of viewers - the opportunity to work by such exacting and intensive venture made me complete tool on Polish music market.

Everything should be played as simple as possible, but not simpler.
Nowadays
A significant part of my work in 2020 are concert tours with the band of Daria Zawiałow - frequently awarded Polish vocalist, composer and text author.
Artists
Among the artists playing their own music material, who have contributed to my professional development and with whom I had the pleasure to cooperate in the long run, I would like to point out two talented ladies, both equally close to me.
For many years I played in a band of Halina Frąckowiak, honored Polish artist who performs on stage since 1963 and still gives concerts for many of her fans. Over half a century on the stage is something unique for me. This is exactly what I would like to wish Daria Zawiałow, whose band I have joined in 2017 after releasing her debut album - "A kysz!" (Sony Music, 2017). We've been working together since her first concert tour. I've started recording her songs since her second album - "Helsinki" (Sony Music, 2019). Both albums have platinum status, which means in Poland over 30,000 copies sold.
Daria writes songs that people love, she is extremely hard-working and consistent musician. She has received many awards from the Polish phonographic industry and I believe together we'll get another ones.
