Dżem is one of Poland’s most iconic blues-rock bands, formed in 1973. Blending elements of rock, blues, and folk, the group became known for their emotionally charged lyrics and soulful guitar work. They gained massive popularity in the 1980s and 1990s, especially through the passionate performances of their legendary frontman, Ryszard Riedel, whose voice and presence left a lasting mark on Polish music. Even after Riedel’s passing in 1994, Dżem has continued to perform and record, maintaining a devoted fan base and honoring their rich musical legacy with live albums and anniversary concerts.
Over the decades, Dżem’s music has touched on themes of freedom, struggle, and introspection, often resonating deeply with generations of listeners. Their songs like "Whisky," "Wehikuł Czasu," and "Cegła" are considered classics in Polish rock history. Today, the band continues to be a powerful live act, with a lineup that carries the spirit of their original sound while evolving with the times.
