Wojtek Mazolewski – composer, musician, double bass player and bass guitarist. Founder of Pink Freud and the Wojtek Mazolewski Quintet. The Gdansk native has been making music for as long as he can remember and has proven a compulsive creator of new sounds and new bands to bring forth those sounds.

On April 11th 2011 discerning music fans across Poland wishes came true. Wojtek teamed up with the largest independent record label in Poland, Mystic Production to issue a CD version of ‘Smells Like Tape Spirit’, as well as a vinyl version! In the short time between the Internet release via www.mazolewski.com and the CD/Vinyl release, Wojtek Mazolewski Quintet went out on the road. The band played to sell out audiences across Poland. Upon the bands return home they were pleased to discover they had become the first jazz act ever to appear on PR3 (National Radio) Listeners Chart. ‘Newcomer’ remained on the chart for several weeks.

WMQ is the quintessence of what Mazolewski has pursued all his life, created in collaboration with Oskar Torok on the trumpet, Marek Pospieszalski on saxophone, Joanna Duda on the piano, Jerzy Rogiewicz on percussion and Wojtek Mazolewski on the double bass.
