Tense

Tensioned will perform in Stary Manez

Tensed, or Hubert Dobaczewski, returns to Stary Manezh! The charismatic singer, composer and songwriter will present his solo repertoire on our stage.

Tensioned is an artist who has consistently built his own recognizable musical language for years — both as the frontman of the iconic Lao Che and in his solo incarnation. His author's projects are a space more personal, at times austere, and at the same time full of literary precision and characteristic irony.

The album “Heartcore” brought the artist a nomination for Fryderyk 2023 in the category Alternative Music, confirming his strong position on the Polish scene. The album's promotional single “Blue” became one of the loudest songs of his career — it remained at No. 1 on the Radio 357 chart for 21 weeks, remaining at the top of the chart for more than 90 weeks!

In 2025, Hubert Dobaczewski was honoured with the title of Polish Ambassador in Writing, awarded by the Polish Language Council — a distinction highlighting his exceptional care for the word and his unusual approach to writing texts. The latest chapter in this story is the spring 2026 album “Full H.D.”, which expands on his previous style while opening up to new sounds and narratives.

During the concert in Stary Manezh, Spiety will present cross-sectional material, not avoiding both the latest compositions and works well known to loyal fans of his solo work. On stage he will be accompanied by excellent musicians: Bartek Kapsa (drums, sampler), Emil Wojtczak (bass) and Patryk Kraśniewski (keyboards).

This will be an evening for those who appreciate music with character — Tensioned is a guarantee of that.
