#60 - ZRADA

Join ZRADA on a kaleidoscopic journey through the dark heart of Ukrainian folk music and emerge somewhere in the cosmos. Ancestral sounds explode in a soundscape full of joy, anger, melancholy & madness. ZRADA’s music transcends language and beckons to those ready for a transformative & wild musical experience.I'm no Ukrainian folk savant but still I have NEVER heard another band like ZRADA. Adding elements of prog and metal and who-knows-what-else to their Ukrainian folk foundation with masterful composition from all 7(!) of their members creates something truly special. I got the chance to pitch my theories about what their songs are actually about to Andriy, Mikhas, Nick, and Joel; we also talked about their eclectic writing process and the Russo-Ukrainian war.Find ZRADA:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/69vHqnzN9kuKuqOK6bWLPmApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/zrada/435831110YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@zradaculturalacademyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/zradamusic/Follow the show on Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/inthezone.wpg/⁠And TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@inthezone_wpg
