Gabriela Kulka is a pianist, singer and songwriter, whose repertoir defies stylistic pidgeonholing. Balancing on the verges of rock, jazz and cabaret, she creates dynamic, emotional and complex pieces of music, which bear as much resemblance to stage musical, as to contemporary alternative pop.
She has recorded two full-length albums:
- Between Miss Scylla and a Hard Place (2003),
- Out (2006) [re-released in 2007]
She debuted in 2001 on the warsaw club and cafe circuit, playing piano and performing her first songs – in Jazz Cafe Helicon, Traffic, Jazzgot.
The year 2007 brought her a nomination from National Public Radio Program 3 "...for pursuing her own, original artistic concept". In the same year "Out" was picked by the major Polish weekly 'Polityka' for the annual list of most important cultural events - it took 4th place in popular music category.
The independent magazine 'Lampa' called the album "...one of the greatest, and most overlooked events on the Polish music scene ".
Gabriela recorded the album "Out" on her own - arranging, performing and recording all instrument and vocal parts, combining a cabaret sensitivity, a sound only casually ornamented with electronics - with ambitious lyrics, both in Polish and in English. This diverse collection of songs is brought together by the common element - the flexible, multi-octave voice of their author.
