A new, interesting project is in progress in the Polish music scene. The project, called Poland ….why not? is a joint venture between well known American composers and songwriters and Polish artists, many of them Eurostars. Among them Mietek Szcześniak (Poland 99) who has recorded a new single with Grammy Award winning composer and singer Wendy Waldman.
Poland…. Why not? is a project based on an idea by Brian Allan. Many famous American composers and songwriters such as Steve Dorff (Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Barbara Streisand, Faith Hill) Jud
Friedman (Whitney Houston), Keith Brown (Desmond Child, Faith Hill, Richard Marx),Matthew Noble (Rihanna)and Terri Bjerre (Lutricia McNeal, Sarah Connor) will be writing songs for Polish artists.
Mietek Szcześniak, who represented Poland in the 1999 Eurovision Song Contest, has recorded the first single for the project. Never be the same was created by Mietek and Wendy Waldman, who has won the Grammy Award for Save the best for last with Vanessa Williams.
Other Polish artists involved in the project are Piotr Cugowski, Sławek Uniatowski and Hania Stach who have all tried their hand for the Eurovision Song Contest.
