SENATOR CONCIERGE: OUR TOP OF UPCOMING EVENTS
As Fall takes hold, we might as well enjoy each season for its individuality. If you’re looking for things to do in Kyiv during October, there are loads of great events in October that will keep you entertained. Here are our favorites.
5 October 2019 I AM WAITING FOR YOU LAST SUMMER
The unpredictability and experimental spirit of I am waiting for you last summer allowed the group to become one of the leaders of the local independent scene and a promising team in Asia.
The trio’s live concerts capture their energy and vast palette: line-by-line canvases are replaced by a hard electronic beat, and the atmospheric electronics, filled with harmonies of east and west, hide the tension and power of trailer music.
The group builds a powerful wall of sound, dissolving in which, everyone finds something of their own: whether it be flying into fictional worlds or an unbridled drive from the dance. Immerse yourself in the mesmerizing energy of live performances!
One of the most mysterious artists of the Ukrainian contemporary scene will perform in Kiev with the presentation of the third studio album Strandzhlava. The new Dakooka material is slightly different from the artist’s previous work. This album is a confession of a woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Insightful songs based on real events, branded arrangements and fragile artist on stage – this performance will not leave you indifferent.
Katya Eremenko aka Dakooka is a Ukrainian artist from Chernivtsi. She is known as “dark horse” of domestic indie pop, she impresses with the variety of her creativity: the release of “Form” came out light and sensual, and the album “Hero” is full of gloomy and depressing electronics. How Strandzhlava comes out is still a mystery. Do not miss the performance of the mysterious and original Dakooka!
