I'm over the moon because Mourners made Rolling Stone’s Best Songs of the Year list! It’s also the title track of our new album produced by Nick Launay and one of my favorite Trupa Trupa songs. Huge thanks to Rolling Stone and @simonwilliam.bsky.social

Just arrived in the mail! I’m holding in my hand Daniel Rachel’s latest book This Ain’t Rock ’n’ Roll, the Rough Trade Book of the Year, the book that ends with the story of my fight against fascist windmills (the real kind).

We are currently working on a new full-length album and recently recorded a demo in a beautiful Gdynia studio situated inside one of the city’s oldest tenement houses, the historic Leon Stankiewicz building (where the pre-war elevator still runs!).

Hip hip hooray for Idan Weiss’s nomination for the European Film Awards for his title role in Kafka directed by A. Holland! A wonderful, brilliant, truly masterful performance that reminds me of young Leonardo DiCaprio as Arthur Rimbaud in Total Eclipse, also directed by Holland. Go go go FRANZ!

"Dzień Dobry TVN" filmed a program about me.
Thank you to Agnieszka Holland, Maciej Olejniczak, and Tomek Pawluczuk for being part of it - although morning TV is morning TV, and the format ends up being short. Below is a short excerpt, and here’s the full version:

1/ “Kafka by je miloval” sounds much more beautiful in Czech than the English “Kafka would have loved them” or the Polish “Kafka by ich lubił.”
I love the Czech language and this quote by Agnieszka Holland about Trupa Trupa, which appears in the “ArtCafé” program

Grzegorz Kwiatkowski je renesanční postavou. Je nejen činný na hudební scéně jako zpěvák a kytarista mezinárodně uznávané alternativně rockové kapely Trupa Trupa, ale vedle toho je činný i jako básník, esejista, univerzitní pedagog a aktivista, který se věnuje paměti, historii a etice. O všech těchto aktivitách, a také o práci na hudebním soundtracku filmu Franz, s ním v rozhovoru mluvil hudební dramaturg Pavel Zelinka.
