Description
Yagody is undoubtedly one of the most charismatic Ukrainian folk bands! Each moment in a person's life has its own song, says Zoryana Dybovska, who founded Yagody in 2016 in the West Ukrainian city of Lviv, together with students from the local theater faculty. The four traveled through different regions of Ukraine to explore the musical traditions of the people there. With this huge collection of songs about love and life, Yagody create their own exciting sound, supported by musicians on drums, guitar, accordion or the drymba, a mouth harp of the Hutsul people from the Carpathians. Since Yagody are active in the world of theater, they realize their musical stage show according to dramaturgical principles; a concert is like a performance in one act. As the showmaster announced the nameless band at their first concert, he spontaneously presented them as "Yagody," which means "berries."
