In an older post, I already said here a few words about Kristina Solovii. This young Ukrainian singer participated in the TV Show "Holos Krayiny - The Voice of the Country" in 2013 and her coach was Svyatoslav Vakarchuk... :)
Kristina is known for her incredible way to sing Ukrainian traditional folk songs. I'm fond of her voice and this Lemko song brings tears to my eyes when I listen to it: it's so beautiful!
Kristina's fell in love with Lemko songs when she was 12... and, when she talked about that to her mother, she was told that her family came from this region. Everything happens for a reason! :)
Svyatoslav Vakarchuk decided to become the producer of Kristina's first album. For him, "there is a chance now to promote such an alternative music in Ukraine. But artists have to find their audience: to do so, they must stay themselves, thus acting authentically."
Slava is very proud to be involved in this project. This is something we can understand: how not to fall in love with this magical song?!
