History edit

The band first self-released an EP (Neon Chameleon 2006) and an album called Scylla and Charybdis (2007). In June 2010 they signed to Pomaton EMI in Poland and their most recent full-length major-label debut, The Other Hand, came out 21 September. The album was recorded in Warsaw in Studio 333 and produced by Bartłomiej Kuźniak and Olivier Heim. It was mixed in New York City by Victor Van Vugt. It has been well received, and in May 2011 the band was awarded with Fryderyk 2011 as Best Debut of the Year.[3] très.b has given over 150 performances at festivals and venues all over Europe. The band shared the stage with acts like TV On The Radio, Jamie Lidell, Spiritualized, Seabear, and Asteroids Galaxy Tour.

In December 2011 it was announced that the band was ready to record a new album, and that they want to crowd fund it by selling the not-yet-recorded CD, a ticket to a release event (or another show), and a thank you note on the album as a package directly to their fans.[4] This was the first album crowdfunded this way in Poland.

In February 2012 the band went to record the album at The Rolling Tapes Studio in Srebrna Góra, Poland, with Michał Kupicz (Indigo Tree, Enchanted Hunters), who also mixed the record. The album was produced by Michał Kupicz and Olivier Heim. The band recorded everything live, which resulted in the whole recording process taking only 6 days.[5]

The band used unusual ideas to promote the release, e.g. the title was announced in a set of riddles[6] and the first single, before the official radio premiere, was streamed by a local espresso bar where fans could hear it with a set of headphones attached to the wall, after they received GPS coordinates to find the location.[7]

The album 40 Winks of Courage was released 15 May 2012 and received very good reviews: "One of the best alternative records of last years, immediately marked with that 'must have' sticker" Music Is,[8] "Great pleasure for a sensitive listener" Polityka,[9] "Very coherent. Forced me to give it a very warm welcome"; Bartek Chaciński.[10] Furthermore, in August 2012 Uwolnij Muzykę placed "40 winks of courage" as #2 of "best album of 2012 -first half".[11]

In January 2013 the band was awarded with the Paszport Polityki. The band toured extensively until December 2013 and went on a sabbatical.[12] They haven't been active since.
