Met with an exuberant crowd and thunderous applause as part of our Ukraine series in 2024, Kyiv’s DakhaBrakha returns with its powerful, sonic feast and visual spectacle. The quartet’s “ethno-chaos” sound plumbs the depths of Ukrainian roots and contemporary rhythms, fusing ancient folk melodies with everything from indie rock and pop to hip hop and the avant-garde. Intimate then riotous, this soulful tapestry of the unexpected creates “live shows that take DakhaBrakha beyond mere curiosity to utter brilliance.” (NPR)
