R.Ungureanu\nThe artistic relationship between DAGADANA and Subcarpa\u021bi began in 2025 in Bucharest during the De la Om la Omartistic residency, organized as part of the Poland\u2013Romania Cultural Season 2024\u20132025. Subcarpa\u021bi\u2019s leader and producer, Marius Andrei Alexe (Bean MC), selected and invited DAGADANA from among proposed Polish artists. From their very first meeting, it became clear that the bands shared a similar approach to music and a deep respect for tradition and roots.\n\u00a0fot. R.Ungureanu\nThe residency resulted in joint recording sessions, concerts, and a new arrangement of the Polish folk song \u201cMoja mamo,\u201d originating from the Kurpie region and originally performed by the legendary Apolonia Nowak. The track combines hip-hop sounds, electronics, and traditional instruments such as hammered dulcimer, flutes, and violins. The chorus preserves the echo of the Master\u2019s voice, reminding us of music\u2019s timeless nature. The music video was filmed in the Romanian village of Breb in the Maramure\u0219 region, through which the Carpathian mountain range runs \u2014 symbolically linking all three countries: Poland, Romania, and Ukraine.\n\u201cInternational collaboration has always been the greatest opportunity for musicians \u2014 a chance for dialogue and a breath of fresh creative air. In today\u2019s world, the only way to achieve mutual understanding and step outside our comfort zones is to find a common language. Culture makes that possible.\u201d\n\u2014 Daga Gregorowicz, DAGADANA\nFor the past 18 years, DAGADANA has explored Polish and Ukrainian culture, blending traditional music with virtually every genre under the sun. Their work features the distinctive white voice technique and draws on ancestral wisdom preserved in stories heard in ritual songs. Their latest album is filled with well-wishing songs \u2014 among the oldest musical forms preserved in Slavic lands.\nThese songs form the basis of a journey through jazz, fusion, experimental electronic music, and art pop. The band\u2019s ongoing experimentation inspires a kind of rebellious optimism: if not in politics, then in music\u2019s power to surprise, move, and build new bridges.\nTraveling the world, DAGADANA has performed over 1,000 concerts in 34 countries \u2014 appearing both in unusual settings such as on a raft, in the desert, or in a mine, and on the stages of legendary festivals including Glastonbury, Virada Cultural, and Open\u2019er.\nThe album \"Tobie\" can be heard on all streaming platforms: https:\/\/ffm.to\/DagadanaTobie \nMusic videos:\nShchedryi vechir \u2014 https:\/\/youtu.be\/EiupLt238lQGoi Ty Nasha Pani \u2014 https:\/\/youtu.be\/-HhuA1G7vI4Do Ciebie Kasie\u0144ko \u2014 https:\/\/youtu.be\/bhK_3LC5xQgInaczej \u2014 https:\/\/youtu.be\/26V5-TCJ0y0\nDAGADANA concerts are supported by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute and the Polish Institute in London.\nFollow DAGADANA on:Instagram https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/dagadanaFacebook https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dagadanaTikTok https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@dagadanaWWW http:\/\/www.dagadana.pl\nFollow SUBCARPA\u021aI on:Instagram https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/subcarpati_oficialFacebook https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/subcarpatiTikTok https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@subcarpati_oficialWWW https:\/\/subcarpati.com\/"},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"pl-PL","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/2026\/03\/06\/dagadana-and-subcarpati-collaboration-concert-in-london\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/03\/Zrzut-ekranu-12.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2026\/03\/Zrzut-ekranu-12.png","width":900,"height":1124},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/2026\/03\/06\/dagadana-and-subcarpati-collaboration-concert-in-london\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"DAGADANA and Subcarpa\u021bi collaboration: concert in London"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#website","url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/","name":"Instytut Polski w Londynie","description":"Instytuty Polskie","potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"pl-PL"},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#\/schema\/person\/650660f82290e905505348ef8ca79a33","name":"konopkab","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"pl-PL","@id":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/fb1006bc5b4ae26fa605cdf675d5e97c?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/fb1006bc5b4ae26fa605cdf675d5e97c?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"konopkab"},"url":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/author\/konopkab\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12450","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12450"}],"version-history":[{"count":39,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12450\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12688,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12450\/revisions\/12688"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12451"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/instytutpolski.pl\/london\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
