Biography

Misia Furtak is a remarkable presence in music. She is a composer, singer, a bass player, but she also produces music, is part of a collective, that organizes a boutique festival in the middle of nowhere, and works towards educating and encouraging young musicians. Together with Très.B, an international indie rock band she sang and played bass for until the band broke up in 2014, she received a Fryderyk Award and Poland's most prestigious Polityka’s Passport. Solo, as Misia Ff, Furtak also won the Grzegorz Ciechowski Award. She later collaborated with eg. Mazolewski Quintet (the album she appears on was awarded a Gold Record), arranged for a project realized with the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra in Katowice, and with Hatti Vatti, the quirky electronic producer from Tricity, she formed an intriguing indie-electronic duo - Ffrancis. In 2019 she released a self-produced “Co przyjdzie?”, written together with Hania Rani, a brilliant pianist, and composer. As Vogue.pl points out: “With this album, Misia Furtak is promoted to the PJ Harvey, Feist and Cat Power league”. Her latest release is "Wybory" - a gentle chronicle of the last year in Poland, commenting heavily on the political situation. Some of her collaborators include Christian Balvig (a.o Efterklang), Gareth Quinn Redmond (a. o Bell X1), and Albert Karch (a.o Ichiko Aoba, Nenne). She performed several hundred shows in Europe and Japan sharing the stage with a.o The National, Arlo Parks, and many others.
