Over The Under has been active since 2016, and their real breakthrough came just a year later. In 2017, the band quit their jobs and put everything on the line, embarking on a tour that would go down in history for the independent scene — 100 shows in 100 days, played day after day, non-stop. This crazy idea wasn’t a marketing gimmick, but a declaration of freedom and independence, which led to a world record and opened doors for further performances across Europe. Since then, Over The Under has performed over 300 shows and completed several European tours, spanning the UK, Germany, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Scandinavia, and the Czech Republic.

The most unexpected step in the band’s history, however, was the creation of their own music club. The Over The Under Pub in Bydgoszcz was created practically from scratch—without financial backing, but with the enormous support of volunteers, friends, and local scene members. Kor and Czaki built a venue that quickly became the epicenter of the Bydgoszcz underground: a space for concerts, debuts by young bands, charity events, and performances by artists from Poland and abroad. This is a rare example of a band establishing an official club under its own name not as a supplement to their career, but as a true extension of it.

Although OTU Pub became the center of the band’s activities for two years, today Over The Under are returning to the source—playing concerts and creating new music. A new single will soon be released, paving the way for a new album and tour. The band shows no signs of slowing down, once again proving that rock ‘n’ roll isn’t nostalgia, but vibrant, pulsating energy.

How many bands do you know that not only play concerts but build their own stage, their own venue, and their own rules? Over The Under remind us that true rock ‘n’ roll is more than just music—it’s action, risk, and consistency. And when they return to the stage, they do it exactly as they always do: loudly, in their own way, and without a plan B.
