Kortez, born Łukasz Federkiewicz on October 21, 1989, in Zabrze, Poland, is a contemporary Polish singer-songwriter and musician recognized for his emotive voice and poignant lyrics that often capture the intricacies of human relationships and the introspective aspects of life. He emerged on the Polish music scene with his debut album "Bumerang" in 2015, which gained significant attention for its blend of pop, soul, and folk influences, establishing Kortez as a notable figure in the Polish alternative music space.

His subsequent works, such as the second album "Mój dom" in 2017, fortified his status as an artist capable of crafting deeply personal and affecting music. Kortez's live performances are particularly lauded, as evidenced by several releases documenting the energy and intimacy of his concerts, including "Sold Out 2019/2020 (Live)" and "Kwadro Tour Live." His talent transcends mere performance, with his penmanship and musical composition skills being highlighted in more intimate tracks like "Naucz mnie tańczyć" and "Nie było to pisane nam." Constantly evolving as a musician, Kortez has solidified his presence in Polish pop culture, resonating with audiences through his thoughtful storytelling and melodic sensibilities.
