In Concert
This playful band from Kiev researches and then reshapes ancient and contemporary Ukrainian music and theatre creating an unexpected range of sounds in concert that are at once riotous and mesmerizing. DakhaBrakha — which means give-take in old Ukrainian — melds soulful folk and ritual songs, with Balkan, African, Brazilian, experimental Jazz, pop and R&B which is performed on vocals, accordion, bass drum, keyboard, mouth harp and cello - creating hypnotic textures.
