Alyona Alyona

Ukrainian artists show themselves very combative in the face of a horrific war. A good exponent of this is Alyona Alyona, who raps without complexity in her own language and where possible with acoustic instruments as accompaniment. Her most recent work is marked by the war, a theme that unfortunately cannot be ignored during her show at Valkhof Festival. But our shared aversion to that war brings artist and audience together, and the language barrier is soon no longer a problem.
