Osada Vida is one of the most
interesting Polish bands on the prog-rock scene. Their discography includes
three demos and four well received official releases - “Three Seats Behind a
Triangle” (2006/2007), “The Body Parts Party” (2008), “Uninvited Dreams” (2009)
and “Particles” (2013). Their albums feature elaborately beautiful music in the
vein of Yes, Porcupine Tree, Pain Of Salvation and Riverside. In early July,
Osada Vida released their first live DVD entitled “Where The Devils Live”
featuring the recording of their live appearance at the Wyspianski Theater in
Katowice, Poland in Autumn 2011. In 2012 the band debuted in a new improved
line-up - they have added a new vocalist Marek Majewski, previously known from
the band Acute Mind. In Autumn 2013 the band replaced guitarist Bartek Bereska
with young and talented musician – Jan Mintoraj.
Osada Vida is also
recognized worldwide - they played at the famous US' ROSfest 2011 and at the
beginning of October 2012 they were a part of Israeli ProgStage festival where
they performed next to Andromeda, The Flower Kings or Orphaned Land.
The
band’s fifth studio album is scheduled for release in Autumn 2014.
