Russian folk-rock band Zhivitsa

Zhivitsa is the unity of authentic Russian song culture and avant-garde rock music. The philosophy of the music is based on traditions embodied in bright, experimental musical forms, and live modern sounding.

Zhivitsa is a Russian rock band. We perform in the native language only, because we speak this language and express ourselves using it. As musicians we are interested in ethnic musical and poetic art and in opportunity to present it in a world cultural field. We are passionate to show all the beauty and melody of the native language to the whole world.

Full and rich tone of the instruments, participating in formation of the sound of Zhivitsa, emphasizes a bright and original female vocal. Power of the imagery, created earlier by the Russian culture, is still immense, and Zhivitsa acts as its conductor.

Zhivitsa is music for creative and thinking people. It is folk music in original interpretation.
