 Snowman supported concerts of Archive (UK), Karate (USA) and Yann Tiersen (Fr); the band members, along with other artists, run a cultural association (Association For Young Artists V.I.T.R.I.O.L.), take part in many various cultural events (e.g.: music compositions for poetry meetings and exhibitions) and participate in a number of music projects; apart from their own creative compositions, Snowman composed music for film “The shine through” (produced by The Association), for two film etudes by Mariusz Suszek, a student of Polish Film School in Lodz and also for a silent film by F.W. Murnau “Nosferatu. Symphony of Horrors” for the 25th anniversary of Academic Discussion Film Club (Poznan University); the band cooperates intensively with an alternative theatre MOUTH TO MOUTH (soundtracks for “Driver” (2004), “Cadillac” (2005), “Alice 0 700 188 188” (2005), “Embassy” (2006) ) playing live music that accompanies performances and plays staged for theatre festivals (Malta International Theatre Festival, Street Art International Festival, Events Worth Poznan); Snowman made also an impact on such events as prestigious Pilsner Urquell Summer Scene, International Film Festival “Europrowincjonalia” and have won The Young Polish Bands Festival (December 2005). In may Snowman played with Nosferatu during Poznan City culture presentation in Berlin (“Posen wieder kommt!” – an event organized by Poznan government). Currently the band is working on their album.                                                                 

 Their participation in a great variety of music events and also the reviews they get, which attempt at finding correspondences between the music they make and the one made by an extremely broad range of different artists, bear witness to the width of the music spectrum they can achieve and an original style that is so hard to define – a mixture of jazz, post-rock and electronics offering a warm sounding melody and at the same time either a little bit trans-like song or an instrumental composition with a characteristic trans-like theme.
