Mellow melodies from Poland
The exquisite Pils bar is on Saturday hosting a concert by the dreamy Polish duo called Coals.
They've been places, including a Positivus festival here in Latvia.
The Quietus, a British outlet, describes them thus: "The somewhat creamy quality of Coals' music is an experience akin to being wrapped up in cotton wool and sailing away on ebb tides of unperturbed bliss. It could well be down to the silky smooth voice of vocalist Katarzyna Kowalczyk or possibly the multi-instrumentation of Łukasz Rozmysłowski but the net result is gorgeously lush music that increases the anticipation of their yet-to-be released debut album."
