Marcin Wasilewski Trio

Marcin Wasilewski Trio – the only Polish ensemble recording for the prestigious label ECM Records from Munich and one of the most recognizable Polish jazz bands in the world. 2019 is the 25th anniversary of the group, but its origins date back to 1990, when students of the Koszalin high school founded the Simple Acoustic Trio. Three years later, drummer Michał Miśkiewicz joined the trio – and in this unchanged composition the ensemble performs until today. In 1995 the band's debut album "Komeda" was released, and a year later their first fully original album. Towards the end of the 1990s, trumpeter Tomasz Stańko became interested in the band. This is how he commented on the Marcin Wasilewski Trio: "There was no group like them in the whole history of Polish jazz". In the first years of the 21st century, the musicians recorded three albums together and also had a tour of the United States.
