Back in August, KEXP traveled to Katowice, Poland for our third year at the OFF Festival. In addition to our live broadcast and on-site interviews with bands like Silver Apples, Beak>, and more, we were also able to capture some field recordings with Polish band L.Stadt.
Hailing from Łódź, the band has been exploring a variety of genres since forming in 2003. On their most recent release L.Story (out now via Mystic Production), the group delves into an indie folk sound. For their KEXP Field Recording performance, L.Stadt brought along the Wielki Chór Młodej Chorei Choir.

We already can't wait for next year!
