Before the folk session, we recall how DakhaBrakha have carried Ukrainian song to world stages for years, introducing millions of listeners to Ukraine's culture.
DakhaBrakha have long grown beyond a purely musical phenomenon — the band has become one of the most prominent voices of Ukrainian culture in the world. Performing at leading international venues and festivals, the musicians consistently represent Ukraine through its song, language, and tradition, not merely through their own artistry.
For many audiences abroad, DakhaBrakha were the first encounter with Ukrainian folk music. Their concerts often turn into a conversation about Ukraine — its history, distinctiveness, and cultural independence. At a time when global attention to Ukraine is especially high, such artistic diplomacy carries real weight.
The folk session on July 18 brings this global voice back to its very origins — to the intimate, focused sound of folk song. It is a chance to hear the band in a format close to the primary source of its inspiration.
The event will be a reminder that Ukrainian culture sounds confident and dignified — both at home and far beyond the country's borders.
