Ukrainian “ethno chaos” band DakhaBrakha creates a world of unexpected new music, weaving ancient Ukrainian folk melodies into a subversive musical tapestry that embraces indie rock, pop, hip hop, the avant-garde, and traditional instrumentation from around the world. At the crossroads of Ukrainian folklore and theatre, DakhaBrakha has honed an evocative musical approach based around eerie vocal harmonies and thunderous percussion, augmented by ethereal cello and accordion sonorities. Prepare yourself for a sonic feast.

This event does not include a prelude.

“From the first moment the group starts performing, it’s hard not to get caught up in the magic it weaves. …utter brilliance.”
