We came from the cosmos… Poznan three-piece, Kozmanauts are influenced by bands such as The Telescopes, Drop Nineteens, Adorable, Lemonheads and Palace Brothers with nods to Elvis Costello and Frank Black, among others. A handful of live performances since 2018, culminated in their first release, ‘Enter the Cosmos’, in 2022. The six-song lo-fi collection, slipped under the radar of even the most dedicated of local gig goers, however, the bands follow up E.P, 'Zopiclone' was released in February 2025, and is a truer reflection of their sound, with more reliance on melody than the chunky riffs featured on 'Cosmos' . Zopiclone was recorded by veteran producer Przemysław Ślużyński at his home studio in Poznan, Poland. Live performances are raw and energetic, with the band showcasing new and familiar material to enthusiastic audiences across Poland. The band's current iteration features two former members of Alien Autopsy/Dead Members, David Leonard - vox/guitars and Michal Młodnicki – drums and bass player, Szymon Starosta formerly of Selftitled. They record their own material via Entrance F Recordings.
