My name is Michał Górka, a professional multi-instrumentalist musician based in Kraków. I'm a co-founder of the Polish Celtic Association and co-organiser of the Kraków Celtic Festival. I bring a strong sense of detail, organizational skill, and a passion for European folk music to every project. Traveling across Europe for performances and projects is in my rhythm — I’ve performed with bands such as Daj Ognia, Shannon, The Stouters, Kraków Creek, Ariadne's Thread, and Light Migrations, and I stay actively involved in Celtic culture and European folklore. I’m fluent in Polish and English, I love learning quickly, and I enjoy sharing knowledge, and joy of music through collaborations with fellow musicians and artists.
