This last weekend Hańba! celebrated 10 years of musical career at Klub Gwarek in Kraków. The Polish, conceptual, folk-punk, four piece has been re-inventing the sound of punk by transplanting it to interwar Poland in the 1930s. If you don’t know them, this is your chance to join their cause.
Photographer Norbert Burkowski (No.Photos) was at the trenches of Klub Gwarek to cover the second date of a two-day celebration.
Formed in 2012 in Wrocław, Poland, HAŃBA! is known for its unique blend of punk, folk, and traditional Polish music, as well as its politically charged lyrics. Their music is heavily influenced by folk music from interwar Poland and their conceptual narrative by the history of the period. Their lyrics often deal with political and social issues, such as poverty, inequality, and the rise of far-right nationalism. The band has been praised for its activism and commitment to social justice, as well as its ability to connect with audiences through its powerful and emotive music.
