Line up: Monika Lidke - vocals Matt Chandler - guitar Tom Ollendorff – guitar Jakub Cywinski - double bass Adam Teixeira - drums Monika Lidke is a singer-songwriter of Polish origin, currently living in London. She creates exciting and original music that truly connects with the audience. Her songs blend jazz, folk, and Latin grooves with Polish and French roots to create a mesmerising live show. Her debut album, Waking Up to Beauty, was released in 2008, shortly after moving to the UK from Paris. The album achieved critical acclaim around Europe, especially in Poland, where it was championed by well-known radio presenter Marek Niedźwiecki, who described it as “beautiful, delicate, addictive!” Monika’s subsequent albums – ‘If I Was to Describe You’ (2014), ‘Gdyby każdy z nas’ (2017), and ‘Let the World Be a Question’ further explore songwriting within the wide umbrella of jazz, world, and folk music, featuring collaborations with outstanding guests including Basia Trzetrzelewska, Janek Gwizdala, Marek Napiórkowski and Shez Raja, and resulting in invitations to perform at prestigious venues such as Agnieszka Osiecka Studio in Warsaw, Ronnie Scott’s, Pizza Express Jazz Club, 606 Club, as well as major festivals including the London Jazz Festival, Manchester Jazz Festival, Jazzahead, and Rhythms of the World Festival. A keen collaborator, Monika co-writes songs for film and TV with international composers, poets, and lyricists.
