The band was led by the founder of Oddział Zamknięty, Wojtek Łuczaj-Pogorzelski. But Kubiak’s musical love was the band Chocolate Spoon, with which he released three albums: Macho, from which comes the song Hey Ho Rock'n'Roll, Blue Bird and Pope Love with the song Wild Dream. He has been giving solo shows for years, and has played all over Europe. He plays the classical and twelve-string acoustic guitar, banjo and ukulele. He wrote a busker’s handbook containing 40 short chapters full of knowledge about how to play on the street. He is the author of a novel about a street musician, One-way Street.
For over nine years, he has been giving concerts promoting addiction prevention. He played over 500 of them in schools, school complexes, prisons, detention centres and correctional facilities as well as military units throughout Poland.
