“It’s really the live shows that take DakhaBrakha beyond mere curiosity to utter brilliance.” – NPR

DakhaBrakha is a live experience like no other.

The quartet from Kyiv, Ukraine creates bold, immersive performances built on powerful vocals, driving percussion, and a striking visual presence. Calling their sound “ethno chaos,” DakhaBrakha blends traditional Ukrainian roots with global influences, from folk and dub to hip-hop, jazz, and punk. Rolling Stone famously dubbed it “folkdrone Björkpunk.”

Layered rhythms, thumping bass lines, distorted electric guitars, and hypnotic harmonies create a visceral, trance-like atmosphere that pulls audiences in from the first beat. Their iconic costumes and commanding stage presence heighten the sense that this is not just a concert, but a fully realized artistic ritual.

As cultural ambassadors for Ukraine, DakhaBrakha uses international touring to share their music, their identity, and their voice with the world. Their performances resonate as expressions of creativity, resilience, and connection.

Unclassifiable, electrifying, and unforgettable, DakhaBrakha brings a powerful global sound to New Bedford for one night only.
