MehehePL
The ethno-ambient duo Mehehe delves into the roots of Polish village music and folk magic traditions. Through voice, traditional instruments, and a looper, they evoke the spirit of rural rituals preserved in rhymes, melodies, and folk songs. Their music is both trance-inducing and lyrical. The duo consists of Helena Matuszewska, an award-winning multi-instrumentalist, composer, and knee fiddle expert, and Basia Songin, an award-winning singer, composer, and creator of self-invented string instruments. Mehehe debuted in 2018 as one of the winners of Poland's most prestigious ethnic music festival. In 2019, they released their debut album Ciemnienie / Darkening (Folk Phonogram of the Year 2019). In 2020, they joined Keychange, a pioneering international initiative supporting women in music. Their second album, UMBRA, is set for release in 2025.
