Ukraine has a great tradition of polylphonic group singing. New York's Ukrainian Village Voices is a vibrant choral ensemble dedicated to keeping those traditions alive.
You can hear and download the band’s brand new self-titled debut album (on Brooklyn's esteemed Jalopy Records label) at https://ukrainianvillagevoices.bandcamp.com/.
Ukrainian Village Voices celebrates the album release by performing at the Saint George Ukrainian Festival at Saint George Ukrainian Catholic Church, 30 E 7th St
in the East Village on Friday night May 18th. And, the official Ukrainian Village Voices record release concert - with fellow NYC / East European rooted ensembles Cheres and Supruli - is on Sunday June 3rd at the St. George Academy at 215 E 6th St.
The group also invites musicians from near and far to lead public vocal workshops. The next workshop - From Polissia to Poltava -
with Shelley Thomas
of Black Sea Hotel - is tomorrow (Sunday afternoon May 6th) at 3:30 at Playwrights Rehearsal Studios, Room 3G
440 Lafayette St (near Astor Place) in lower Manhattan.
But first, experience Ukrainian Village Voices and these rich ancient traditions live on WFMU!

About the artists:
Canada's celebrated Inuk performer Tanya Tagaq employs exquisite, unnerving vocal improvisations that blend vocal techniques from metal, rock, improvisational and new music worlds with elements of Inuit throat singing. Tanya’s heritage is never far from her mind, and it has a political edge (growing up in a majority Inuit area, Tanya saw the effects of Canadian attempts to systematically dismantle Inuit culture). Tagaq’s art challenges static ideas of genre and culture and contends with themes of environmentalism, human rights, and colonialism.
In their collaboration, Eva Salina & Peter Stan pick up and continue an interrupted legacy of empowered female voices in Balkan Romani (gypsy) music. Amplifying voices of past generations of Romani women musicians, Eva & Peter employ tenderness, grace, passion and a commitment to keeping these songs alive and evolving, while inspiring and teaching young people in the Balkans & Balkan diaspora to participate in living traditions.
