On 6 December at 22.15 watch on 1+1 channel movie-concert "Zirky v armiyi" (Stars in the Army). It was for this project, dedicated to the Day of Ukrainian Army, that we recently made a video on a Navy ship.
We are preparing a special edition of our compilation "NAYKRASCHA MYT. Best hits and ballads". It will be updated with DVD containing the complete collection of band's video clips. Release of this edition will be anounced additionally.
MAD HEADS XL join the Navy! When the yachts are caught by storm, you would wish to be on board that is not going to drown, and it’s better be a navy ship!
The band was recently making a new video for the Ukrainian folk song “Oi, zbyralysya orly chaiku ryatuvaty” (The eagles were going to save a seagull).The shooting was taking place in Sevastopol, on board of a navy ship, supported by Ministry of Defence. The result could be seen on TV in December, (now only a photo report). It was pleasant to discover that navy guys are not only high professionals and real fans of their job, but some of them also are good musicians! We won’t forget a cool trumpet jam session between 2 navy ships as well as a good time after.
The film "Hapiness Factory", directed by Akhtem Seitablayev, will be on Ukrainian STB TV channel on Sunday, 28 October at 20-00.

The summer is gone a while ago now, but the seaside hit "A ya na mori" is still popular on radio. Only this week it leaves the National radio Top 40 . The song spent 15 weeks in the radio chart with #1 peak position in the middle of summer heat.
Hi-Tech and Rock'n'Roll: a well-known sound engineer and musician Oleg White lost somewhere in Ukraine. We worked with Oleg in recording studio for many years, and recently he joined us as a concert sound engineer. For the last Saturday's concert in Chernivtsi Mr. White choosed to go by his own car, making his way from Kyiv with a help of GPS-navigator. Oleg's plan was to get to the place short before the start of our performance, and he arrived to Chernivtsi in time... only it was "wrong" Chernivtsi. High-Tech devise brought him to the small town by the same name, 200 km away from the city we've been waiting for him. Oleg had no chance to get to the concert in time. Fortunately, MAD HEADS XL show wasn't cancelled, neither it was late. It was saved by Stas Zahonyayev, a guy who had been our FOH engineer before Mr. White and happened to be "on the right time, in the right town".
Recently MAD HEADS XL got into the movie again. The guys played themselves in a film "Seven days before the wedding" (directed by Sergey Lysenko). As it comes from the title, there is a wedding in the end of the film, and the band is performing the song "Dubky" there. The movie is still in the shooting stage, later it can be seen on the leading TV channels of Ukraine and Russia.
Vadym Nikitan is back. Our trumpet player is back after 2 month break, as soon as 7 September in Docker's ABC you can hear the band in the main line up. We are also getting back to work on the new album and we are going to put all efforts to make it possible for you to listen to it still this year.
Earlier anounced for 30 September, the concert in Chernivtsi is moved to 13 October.
Сегодня с утра наш трубач на замене Александр Гудзь оказался в больнице. Так как наш основной трубач Вадим Никитан так же находится на длительном больничном, ми вынуждены отменить наш сегодняшний концерт в Докер пабе. Приносим извинения за возможные неудобства.
