Friday July 29: Dakha Brakha
A band like no other, in a time like no other. Soulful subversive folk-art heroes, DakhaBrakha from Kyiv, Ukraine creates a world of unexpected sounds and visuals. Self-described as “ambassadors of free Ukraine,” their shows are punctuated with cries of “Stop Putin!” and “No war!” This “Ukrainian-folk-meets-punk group” (NPR) whose name means “give/take” in old Ukrainian, explore a modern take on Ukrainian folk traditions with elements of cabaret, jazz, rock and hip-hop as part of the band’s DNA. Their music is at first intimate then riotous, plumbing the depths of contemporary roots and rhythms, inspiring political, cultural and artistic liberation.
