(Boris Grebenshikov)
June 8th 2022
A very special concert – in very special times.
There is hardly any Russian-speaking person in the world that hasn't heard of the legendary rock artist Boris Grebenshikov (BG), also known as the leader of the band Aquarium. BG’s poetry literally re-invented the Russian language that is spoken today.
During the 70s and 80s BG created an entirely unique musical and social aesthetic. Influenced by a variety of music styles and cultures, his sound nevertheless remained recognizable - whether performing quiet love ballads, light dancing reggae or powerful rock-n-roll anthems. His classical discography consists now of over 30 studio albums.
Grebenshikov is also no stranger outside the Post-Sovyet countries. His albums were recorded and released throughout Europe, and North America, and he is widely known and respected among top Western musicians.
Under the recent years BG has continuously and bravely raised his voice against the injustices and the repressions in his native country and performed in Ukraine - to a great acclaim – as long as it was possible.
In 2022, BG & Aquarium were going to internationally celebrate 50 years of their music. The shameless war in Ukraine canceled the celebration of this anniversary.
But BG and his fellow musicians now set out on a very special tour - to heal the wounds caused by today's madness, as far as it is only can be possible. The concert program includes BG’s best songs, old gold and completely new, that you want - and need - to sing and hear today.
BG+ are Alexander Titov, Brian Finnegan, Konstantin Tumanov, joined by other members of Aquarium.
Please pay attention that visiting the show, you have an option to donate to Unicef for support of Ukrainian children. If you wish to donate please choose the option “Support Ukraine” – the raised profit will go directly to Unicef.
Do not miss the only unique concert of BG+ in Sweden!
Lyrics in English:
It doesn't matter how much we sang – it was as good as if we were silent, That's why our holy water is now dead.The wheels of sorrow have run over us, And here we go to the harvest festival in the workers' cultural centre.
It's time to refrain, but how do you refrain? [How do you] leave this zone, pull the wires out of yourself? And Rose from the State Timber Enterprise and Mary the Wedding Bird Are dying for a ticket For the harvest festival in the workers' cultural centre.
We know the machine is utterly broke, We know there's no road here and never has been.Close your eyes so you don't see a faun creeping in the field, A star fallen from the sky is knocking at the door. The harvest festival in the workers' cultural centre.
Black soot red as a flag, Blown up trains among the ancient ruins, Under the feet of the passers-by are paintings from Hermitage,The conductor is completely deaf – The harvest festival in the workers' cultural centre.
It doesn't matter how much we sang – it was as good as if we were silent, That's why our holy water is now dead. And on the starry night I will wait on the quay. We're in the beginning yet. The harvest festival in the workers' cultural centre.
