Svjata Vatra

Ukrainian-Estonian Svjata Vatra (“Holy Fire”) plays folk music based on traditional songs, nostalgic children’s games and Baltic melodies, with a fresh punk attitude.

Svjata Vatra has been exploring the intersection of Estonian and Ukrainian traditions for over a decade since the frontman Ruslan Trochynskyj left the famous Ukrainian band Haydamaky to live in Estonia. The band has been leading Baltic support of Ukraine both culturally and financially since the beginning of the war.

Let us know you’re planning to attend and RSVP on Facebook.
