Piguła formed The Analogs in 1995 and, excluding the years he spent imprisoned, has been with the band non-stop since then as its primary songwriter. Initially he played bass guitar and provided backing vocals for The Analogs, but in 2008 he switched to lead guitar. In recent years Czekała has also began occasionally performing as the lead singer on a very small fraction of the songs the band plays live, such as a cover of the classic "Skinhead Girl" song during a November 2019 concert in London where the band played alongside the famous ska artist Roy Ellis.[2] In 2020 he started his own multi-genre vocal project called Piguła Original.[3]
