Anka Różańska

Bass player. The clearest recurring presence in eyewitness accounts after Suchy.

Partly confirmed

  • Almost always described as the band's bassist.
  • Probably one of the youngest members of the group.
  • Remembered as playing with unusual steadiness compared to the rest of the band’s chaotic live sound.
  • Her surname appears in two later handwritten notes, though neither note can be dated securely.

Rumors, myths, contradictions

  • One story says she had formal musical training and concealed it from the others.
  • Another says she refused to be photographed and stepped out of frame whenever someone brought a camera.
  • Some insist “Anka Różańska” was a stage name.
  • A faint legend claims she was the only person who still had a copy of the demo in the late 1980s.

A former listener remembered her not as loud, but as impossible to ignore: “everyone else looked temporary; she looked like she had decided to be there.”

Notes

Because the surviving story is so male-centered, later retellings often exaggerate her role in opposite directions — either turning her into the hidden backbone of the group or reducing her to an aesthetic detail. Neither version should be trusted too easily.
