daltonists are an experimental trio whose name refers to color blindness, an innate visual impairment. This human flaw became the band’s idée fixe, the main inspiration and motivation for creating. The musicians combine the hues of contemporary jazz, afrobeat, dub, African music and club sounds.
Despite their short existence the band became a sensation, performing at several prestigious festivals in Poland, including Jazz Jantar, True Tone Festival and OFF Festival. At the Crossroads Showcase Festival in Ostrava they won a special award for the best band chosen by music industry professionals, which led to invitations to further festivals in 2026/2027 (Sunfest and Ottawa Jazz in Canada, Colours of Ostrava in the Czech Republic, Jazz Fest in Brussels and others).
The band’s debut mini-album titled “daltonists” was released on May 9, 2024, and its YouTube version went viral, gathering a large number of positive comments from around the world. Their tracks are often played by leading DJs on radio stations in Poland and Europe (Soweto Kinch – BBC 3, Tom Ravenscroft – BBC 6/RinseFM, Marcin Harper – Czwórka, Gosia Jakubowska – Trójka). The second album “gradient” was released in November 2025 by the British label Folded Music.
