Grzegorz Lesiak got to jazz guitar the hard way. A career in the Polish and Ukrainian folk circuit was abruptly interrupted by
a2003 car wreck, hospitalizing Lesiak for a time. After his recovery, he decided to muscially start all over from scratch.
That’swhen he tapped into the fertile Polish jazz scene with saxophonist Tomasz Piątek, bassist Łukasz Downar and drummer
KrzysztofRedas to form Tatvamasi (a word crammed from three other words in Sanskrit, translating to “that thou art”). Their
debut albumParts of the Entirety does more than just hold a great deal of promise. Straight out of the gate, they’re an awfully
convincingact.
