Kinga Glyk is a bassist and composer with a unique funk-infused sound and one of the most captivating figures of young jazz. Combining improvisation with a modern electronic groove, she performs on stages across Europe, at the North Sea Jazz Festival, in Brazil at Blue Note Rio de Janeiro, and in Japan at Expo Osaka. Kinga’s rise has been recognized by the international music community. In 2021, she received a nomination in the “String Instruments International” category from Deutscher JAZZ PRESS, alongside artists such as Christian McBride and Wolfgang Muthspiel, as well as the prestigious Koryfeusz of Polish Music award, among others.

Live reviews

Excellent concert. This was my first time seeing Kinga Głyk and her trio live, but I'm sure it won't be the last. She has the tendency to introduce everything--a bit off-putting, but not terrible. The music moved in and out of the worlds of funk, fusion, and blues—exactly the kind of stuff I like to listen to. I'm only a beginning bass player, so I can't comment on whether her bass playing is as amazing as it looks to me and others, but I found it to come in somewhere between virtuosity and excellent accompaniment (there were plenty of moments when her keyboardist/pianist or her drummer dad were taking the spotlight for a bit). Kinga slapped on a couple of occasions but usually stuck to finger style.

Great stuff. I would love to see her play with a guitarist in the bad as well...maybe a horn section. Great music.
