Join us for a very special evening at the Bear, where we’ll be joined by fantastic Ukrainian musicians who are raising funds to support families from their country who are desperately in need.
The Ukrainian-born, Grammy nominated American guitarist Vlad De Briansky always surprises audiences with his guitar. His breakthrough album Vladosphere made him a household name in the USA, and his recordings reached the top of the charts, bypassing John Mayer and Phil Collins.
His latest blues album Dreamland is an eclectic mix of blues, jazz and classical interpretation that is second to none. The album is dedicated to his homeland memories of Ukraine and it has topped iTunes blues charts around the world.
Vlad will be joined by Yolanda Charles (bass) and Laurie Lowe (drums).
Opening set with Mariia Yaremak and Izabella Ivashchenko
Mariia (pianist, composer) and Izabella (vocalist, songwriter) are professional musicians who successfully worked with orchestras in Ukraine and abroad, and performed on the big stage. But the war changed everything.
Now they have started a new life in Britain, successfully performing concerts to acquaint people with what is happening in their country through music, videos and personal stories.
