Poland is a Seattle band on Series Two Records. Mark Bombara - (Guitar), Mark Romanowski - (Guitar, Vocals), Shane Peck - (Drums), Janet Utterback-Peck - (Violin), Karen Halliburton - (Violin), Brianna Atwell - (Viola), Noah Wilson - (Bass).
I discovered them on a CD I picked up at a band showcase in Ballard. The CD featured 1-to-2 minute singles from 45 local bands, and Poland was perhaps my favorite of them all. Checking out their myspace page I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had an upcoming show, which happens to be tonight, at The Jewelbox Theater at Rendezvous in Belltown, 7pm.
One blogger wrote: "This Seattle artist is on the cusp of becoming a force in the local scene. Keep an eye out for Poland, Seattle – if you’re just hearing about them now, be assured that you’ll hear more in the near future. And it won’t necessarily be from me."
They were recently featured on BBC Radio 6's Music Podcast (being one of 12 bands selected from every weekend's shows to be on a podcast) available for download here: http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LmJiYy5jby51ay9wb2RjYXN0cy9zZXJpZXMvdHJpbnRyby8= . The new Poland cd, "Please Interstellar Policeman" is now available at Apple Crumble records, JAPAN. Here is their website: http://www.apple-crumble.com/.
