Ива Нова

Formed in St. Petersburg, Russia in 2002, when five young Russian ladies met to create a new collective of musicians after splitting Бабслэй.

All of them had had vast experience of playing at gigs with various groups and having found themselves to be really kindred souls, they started off their joint career, naturally and courageously combining the tunes and instrumentation of traditional Slavonic music with the energy and attitude of punk.
