Early Life and Background

Music Career

Michał Wiśniewski is widely recognized in Poland as the leader of the pop group Ich Troje. He formed the group in 1995 with Jacek Łągwa and Magda Femme. Magda Femme was the first singer for Ich Troje from 1995 to 2001.

The next singer was Justyna Majkowska, who joined from 2001 to 2003. During this time, Ich Troje became one of the most popular pop groups in Poland. They represented Poland at the 2003 Eurovision Song Contest with their song Keine Grenzen. They finished in seventh place, which was a great result for Poland.

After Justyna Majkowska left, Michał chose a new singer, Anna Świątczak, in 2003. She won a special competition on the TVP show Szansa na sukces. In 2006, Ich Troje won the Polish competition for the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest with the song Follow my heart. Anna Wiśniewska left the group in 2010 to start her own music career.

The fourth singer for Ich Troje was Jeanette Vik from Norway. In 2011, Michał took part in the TVP show Bitwa na głosy. He led a team of sixteen talented singers from Łódź. Later in 2011, one of the singers from his team, Justyna Panfilewicz, became the fifth Ich Troje vocalist.

Ich Troje has released many albums. Some of their most popular albums include Ad. 4 (released in 2001) and Po piąte... a niech gadają (released in 2002). Their sixth album, 6-ty ostatni przystanek (2004), was thought to be their last. However, the group reunited and released their seventh album, 7 grzechów głównych, in 2006.
