      The 15th edition of the Festival of Young Talents is knocking at the door

      On 9 October, during the final concert in Szczecin’s Netto Arena, Zalewski and Tymek will perform.

      Krzysztof Zalewski is this year’s winner of the Fryderyk awards in three categories: Author of the year, Producer of the year (together with Andrzej Markowski) and Alternative Pop Album of the year. Zalewski’s music video for the song “Annuszka” was recognised in the Music Video of the year category. The breakthrough in his work was the album “Złoto” (Gold) released in 2016 – in any case, already having the status of the Gold Record assigned by the Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry.

      This album shows that less is more, that what is quiet and subtle often sounds louder that the roar of distorted guitars. The album “Zalewski śpiewa Niemena” (Zalewski sings Niemen) brought more success to Krzysztof. The concerts played in an exceptional line-up to promote this release, initially played in clubs, moved to philharmonics and were performed in the most beautiful concert halls in Poland. All of these achievements finally contributed to the award from the Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry in the form of two Fryderyks in 2018. The awards were handed over in the categories New Performance for the album “Zalewski śpiewa Niemena”, as well as Composer of the year, which Krzysztof together with Dawid Podsiadło received for the song “Początek” (The Beginning). In addition, the music video for this song also received a Fryderyk. In the same year a new song  entitled “Kurier” (Courier) was also released, which promoted the Władysław Pasikowski’s film with the same title. The year 2020 is the time of novelties. After a six months of silence and 4 years since the release of his last solo album, Krzysztof returned with a new album entitled “Zabawa” (Fun).

      Tymek. Rapper, singer, songwriter, lyricist, music producer and composer. He performed during the 6th edition of Young Wolves in 2018. In the same year he recorded and released a single “Język ciała” (body Language), announcing the album Klubowe, which he recorded in a duo with Big Scythe. The song became a national hit and the music video made for it reached over 146 million views on Youtube. The piece is the most popular Polish song and at the same time the most popular song by a Polish artist on Spotify with over 46 million streams. In 2019, he reached over 1,000,000 listeners  on Spotify, which is more than Taco Hemingway. In 2021, as the first artist representing the hip hop culture in Poland, he received a double diamond for his single “Język Ciała”. He has sold over 60,000 albums in Poland.

      For the past 14 editions of the festival, nearly 3500 performers from all over the country have entered the competition. This year’s 15th edition was joined by nearly 300 performers.

      The art director of FMT and chairperson of the jury is Katarzyna Nosowka. The award for the Grand Prix winner of the festival is the release of a digital single by the Kayax studio as part of the “My Name Is New” project and related promotional and public relations activities, as well as financial prizes funded by Szczecińska Agencja Artystyczna (the Szczecin Artistic Agency).

      On Friday, 8 October, competition auditions will be held, during which 10 finalists selected by the jury will perform. At that time, three performers will be selected that will play during the final concert on Saturday, 9 October.
