“Every note feels like a heartbeat of preservation, and it’s an extraordinary thing to witness.” - American Press

Founded in Lviv in 2016, the Yagódy band began as a spontaneous project that grew out of their acting experience and love of folk music. Their approach to folk songs is unconventional: they reinterpret ancient melodies, immersing themselves in their drama and musical atmosphere. Each song for them is a separate action, a mini-performance in which Ukrainian vocals, Balkan rhythms, and ancient songs merge and find their way into the audience's hearts. Their music is the vibrations of nature, the call of blood that unites generations. It is a journey into the soul of everyone who is ready to feel connected to their own roots.
