Music as
a prayer...
Volga’s music feels like a part of nature, of her very being.
Her deceptively simple frame drum and voice arrangements have the rhythmic consistency and slow build of an incoming tide, touching some primal core that usually stays out of reach as her direct language-fluid lyrics resin like long-forgotten memories. Volga’s love saga with the frame drum started in December of 2011. She acquired her first drum in 2012 and started to learn how to play it. In a few years, the first song was downloaded.
Volga’s love saga with the frame drum started in December of 2011. She acquired her first drum in 2012 and started to learn how to play it. In a few years, the first song was downloaded. She feels at home with odd, syncopal beats and with mixing the ethnic cross-cultural spices of East and West, Jazz and Folklore, English and Russian, creating a unique ethno-trance-fusion genre. My music is a sacred design that I receive in the moments of deep merging with a rhythm, when I’m becoming whole with the drum. With it I express my gratitude to this LIFE, with it, I pray to keep trusting in the Great Mystery; with it, I hold that original rhythm I came with.. Am on the life-long path of becoming a priestess of Rhythms & Sweetness.
