We are just back from Canada, where we found out the hospitality of the Ukrainian diaspora, one of the largest and most influential ethnic communities in this beautiful country. We spent an unforgettable week under the maple leaf flag, visited Niagara Falls, learned more about Canadian Ukrainians, and most importantly, we were amused to discovered that in this country our songs have a lot of fans. About 500 people showed up at our solo concert in Edmonton. The festival of Ukrainian culture in Toronto, where our performance was one of the most important events, attracted 500 000 visitors. Concerts have been extremely successful, and the whole trip left a great impression. Here you can read the article (in Russian), here listen to an interview with Vadim Krasnooky (in English) and see photos and video from Toronto Ukrainian festival. And here - photos from the concert in Edmonton.
Meanwhile we are back in Ukraine and there are 2 quite interesting concerts coming in the nearest days. First - FENDER PARTY, guitar event, dedicated to the legendary music brand. The program - Ukrainian musicians and foreign virtuoso Greg Koch. For MAD HEADS fans this concert is going to be of special interest, because the band will perform as a trio, without the brass section. Over the past 6 years we played in trio format only once, so this is going to be the real exclusive. Most songs in the set list will be from earlier pre-XL albums. The second concert - which we will do already at full strength, is going to take place at the largest Ukrainian rock festival "ROCK SICH", where we will hit the stage with especially powerful program.
