Archive material and source history
Zakopower formed in 2005 in Zakopane, Poland, after the folk band Habakuk dissolved. Led by vocalist Mateusz Pospieszalski, they started by mixing traditional Podhale folk music with reggae and rock. Their debut album 'Music, Dance, Melody' came out that same year.
Their song 'Boso' became something of an anthem for them, and they followed it with albums like 'Na siedem' in 2008 and another called 'Boso' in 2013. They've had some lineup changes over time, with Sebastian Karpiel-Bułecka on bass and vocals, Wojciech Topa on violin, Robert Matera on drums, and Piotr Rychlec on keyboards.
Their approach to folk music stirred some debate early on, particularly around their 2007 performance at the Opole Festival. Some traditionalists felt their use of electronic instruments and modern arrangements strayed too far from the genre's roots. They kept going anyway, putting out more records like 'Na skale' in 2015 and 'Tu i teraz' in 2022.
