Band History:
Everything began in autumn of 2000. The band rised up from the hands of Jacek Brzezina (drums) and Piotr Christ (guitar). Before long they confirmed as new members Darek D³ugosz (keyobard), Rafa³ Szopiñski (guitar) and Elwira Sabiga (voice). Came into existance band ' Symbioza ' which started it's 'career' in Palac of Youth in Katowice.
The Beginning (as everywhere) was a bit difficult - few mates wanted to found a band, buy an equipment, rehearsal place...and it was started. Huge fervour to play started to rise from day after day, and the band was unwinding ( and still is). Important part of Melancholy is our mentor and artistic head-master - mr Bogdan Kosieñ, who has helped us since the beginning ( Thank You !) As always in life, we've got personality problems and after when Elwira had left us, we met Agnieszka Kotas - and confirmed her as the bassist. Shortly then, finally the new vocalist - Krzysztof Wróbel joined the band. After Rafal's divergence, crew proceed tortures during the seek for new guitarist. But fortune had smiled for them, and gave Pawe³ Popenda (Pudel). Being into alike squad we changed our name into ' Melancholy ' and opened the gates for unknown. We played about hundred live shows, in Katowice, Krakow, Wroc³aw and other cities in southern Poland , we've got tiny hope that one day we'll get longer, real tour and found a label.
