CroDad & 100 Years

Avant-rock paired with outlandish stage performances

With a unique blend of avant-rock combined with spontaneity of its performance, CroDad & 100 Years will take any unsuspecting audience on a whirlwind journey through time and space.
Former frontman of Connecticut based IMC and IBID and, recently, Kraków based Sexy People, CroDad (notorious for his stage presence and energy) has pieced together an ensemble which is fully ready, willing and able to turn his original material into a live concert which promises to be a memorable experience. They draw inspiration from the likes of Beck, Dunaj and Kazik and their music has been compared to Primus, King Crimson, Talking Heads and Joy Divison.

The outfit

CroDad – voice
Piotr Skupniewicz – clarinet
Jarek Meus – guitar, bouzuki
Łukasz Łaba – bass
Dominik Klimczak – percussion
We agreed to try to put together a new project. He, Łaba and I worked for 2 years on arrangements for the tunes. We wanted to emphasize creativity and some technical prowess in our music. After two years of their patience in working on the material they told me we had to find a drummer.

Highlights for me were your CroDad drummer and guitarist. They groove nicely. I liked what they were doing. I liked the flautist as well. Great technique. She seems a little reserved on stage though. Nevertheless, good solid performance from her. I was digging Mikolaj’s bass guitar tone as well. It worked well when the two bassists played together. I should say this personally to him as well. And of course your performance… Interesting costumes! Hehehe!! Your psychedelic ones! Worker boots! Great stuff. You command the stage and direct things with real flare.It’s entertaining watching you. I felt the same even when I did that gig with you guys – the first time I met you. Kudos as well for reciting that poem. I thought it was hip.
