"I Can See Your Face Everywhere I Look" (Brand new single, 2025).

The Strange World of A.J. Kaufmann · "I Can See Your Face Everywhere I Look"
"Kaufmann is a folk troubadour, minstrel and a harbinger of new sounds and thought. There is a theme that runs through this body of work, a method to his madness. All of these songs are a journey. So take the trip and give a listen. Nobody knows it but A.J. Kaufmann is a national treasure of Poland." - David Bixby, Harbinger Magazine.

STONED GYPSY WANDERER (Ramble Records, 2021)

“A.J. Kaufmann jest romantykiem w najlepszym znaczeniu tego słowa, człowiekiem napędzanym luzackim duchem beatnikowskich poetów, Krautrockowymi rytmami, i wyciem poznańskich wilków.” (Richard Wink, magazyn Horror Sleaze Trash, 2011)

“A.J. Kaufmann rzeźbi w surowej, wysoce nowoczesnej wizji, gdzie zewnętrzne środowisko, i zewnętrzne odczucia podróży równoważą głębokie, wewnętrze eksploracje ‘terra incognito’ ludzkiego ducha, duchowości. Przemieszczając się swobodnie między miłością, seksem, jazzem i śmiertelnością, autor zagląda w zakamarki najmroczniejszych, najpodlejszych barów, a potem wraca do codzienności. Prawdziwy rock'n'rollowy poeta.” (A.D. Hitchin, autor brytyjski, m.in. “The Holy Hermaphrodite”)

“Pan Kaufmann zabiera swoich czytelników wprost w morrisonowskie rozmyślania, które zmieniają niewinność w kamień; brutalna rzeczywistość podana zgrabnie i surowo, jak potrafi zrobić to tylko ten współczesny polski bard.” (Michael Aaron Casares, poeta, wydawca amerykański, Virgogray Press)

“Proszę wyobrazić sobie bardziej znużonego światem Roberta Huntera, z jeszcze bardziej złamanym sercem.” (Paul Corman-Roberts, autor amerykański, m.in. “Coming World/Gone World”)

“W świecie literackim przepełnionym pretensjonalnymi poetami akademickimi i śmiesznymi naśladowcami Bukowskiego, poeta-tekściarz-muzyk A. J. Kaufmann to prawdziwa rzecz, na którą czekaliśmy: szczery, nieokiełznany, wizjonerski i całkowicie oryginalny głos. Rosnące w siłę na bogatej glebie poezji Beatnikowskiej i psychodelii, pisarstwo Kaufmanna nabiera rozpędu na własnej zagubionej autostradzie, a w swoich pierwszych dwóch tomach poetyckich, SIVA IN RAGS i EAST-WEST TRAIN, połączył świeże eksperymenty z uliczną mądrością taniego wina, lepiej niż ktokolwiek inny od czasów świetności Teda Berrigana i Davida Meltzera.” (Bill Shute, Kendra Steiner Editions)
