Vysotsky in English III: Album Release Party

Vadim Astrakhan, a translator / performer, releases a third installment of the Vysotsky in English project. WOLFHUNT features:
• Incredible poetry of Vladimir Vysotsky, Russia’s most revered singer-songwriter, translated and sung by Vadim Astrakhan.
• Translated texts, ranging from “extremely faithful” to “loosely based upon.”
• A diversity of musical genres, including those familiar to the fans of the project (rock, blues, and comedy), as well as previously uncharted territories (ska, hip-hop, female vocals, and others).
• An international cast of superb musicians, including Ural Conservatory Philharmonic Orchestra.
Wolfhunt includes Vysotsky’s famous hits, such as “Wolfhunt” (Оxота на Волков), “The Warplane” (Як-Истребитель), and “Crystal House” (Дом Хрустальный), as well as deeper cuts from Vysotsky’s humongous catalog.

Album Release Party will take place in a posh-yet-cozy Pepela Restaurant in Manhattan and feature a never-before-performed acoustic set, in English and Russian. A special guest, another Vysotsky’s translator / performer, Mika Tubinshlak (Vancouver) will make his debut appearance in New York.
