Cieślak i Księżniczki

CIEŚLAK I KSIĘŻNICZKI / TUNES OF EARLY SPRING The name means Cieślak And The Princesses. Tunes Of Early Spring means Melodie Wczesnej Wiosny. The band was started in the spring of 2009 in Sopot, Poland, by Maciej Cieślak (the leader of alternative/experimental band ŚCIANKA), due to his getting old and the purchase of an old acoustic Gibson. Maciej Cieślak had met Karolina Rec (cello) during the recording session of the Kings Of Caramel album. In autumn 2008 they played a few times to try arrangements for some of his new songs and agreed there should be another cello and viola to make the sound of the band complete. They did not have to wait long. Tomasz Ziętek, who played trumpet on Ścianka’s Secret Sister album recommended a friend of his sister Julia's, Edyta Czerniewicz, a cello player. When Edyta appeared at the rehearsal, she accordingly recommended Julia Ziętek, her friend and Tomasz’s sister, as an exquisite violinist. Julia promised, that she would purchase viola any time soon, and she was accepted as a band member. In April 2009 the band was completed and started rehearsals to arrange the songs and develop their own sonoristic/metaphysical ideas. They have since played an inauguration gig for some friends from Sopot and several gigs in Poland. From October to November 2009 they met at Cieślak’s studio in Warsaw for four few-day sessions to record some songs. As they looked for maximum emotional coherency, they recorded only live and using just four microphones. The album was set to be released at the end of March 2010.
