daltonists
daltonists is an experimental trio [genre: leftfield jam], referring by name to color blindness, an inborn defect of vision. The handicap of human nature has become the idée fixe of the lineup, the main inspiration and motivation for creation. The musicians combine the colors of contemporary jazz, Afrobeat, dub, African and club music. Despite their short existence (June 2021), daltonists have become a revelation on the local scene, playing at several prestigious fes- tivals in Poland, including Jazz Jantar, True Tone Festival and OFF Festival. On Crossroads Showcase Festival in Ostrava won a special award for the best act chosen by music industry professionals and that ended with invitations to other festivals in 2026/2027.
