OPIS WYDARZENIA
They are supported by poets (more well-known – like Tuwim, Broniewski, and less well-known – like Szenwald, Szymański, Ginczanka, Wittlin) and their backyard instruments.
On their recent album, the band wandered into the area of alternative history by Ziemowit Szczerk, where the Republic of Poland, winning, became a hegemon of Central Europe. The post-war reality is sadly different than the Sanation propaganda promised. Poverty,crisis and deficiencies became the main themes of Hańba!’s new songs, soon to be published on Hańba!’s new album.
In 2018, the band received the prestigious Paszport Polityki Award “for literary-musical political reconstruction resulting with a surprising refreshment of folk and punk formula, in the same time accurately picturing present political conflicts and dangers”. Hańba! also won Grzegorz Ciechowski Award (2017) and Czesław Niemen Award (Festival Nowa Tradycja 2014).
