Daughters of Donbas is a contemporary acoustic project rooted in emotional and narrative depth. Blending elements of art-folk, chamber songwriting, and Ukrainian folk vocal traditions, the music moves between original compositions and reimagined fragments of folk. Featured is Marichka (ex Balaklava blues, Lemon Bucket Orkestra), Alina Kuzma, Zoe Santo and others. While some songs echo ancient textures, others are stripped to voice and silence — fragile, direct, and raw. There is no electronics, no overproduction — only acoustic instruments, space, and truth.
The project is grounded in real stories — especially those of Ukrainian children abducted by Russia during the full-scale invasion. Each song bears witness to a stolen name, a stolen childhood, a silenced voice.
The group is recording a full length album that is due out soon, and the project has already been featured on BBC World Service (audio archive here), NPR, German Public Radio, Norwegian National Radio, a 29-minute report on Polish National Radio, and features on several CBC programs (Fresh Air, In Concert, Frequencies) plus a live report for CBC Television from Kyiv.
