RUSSKAJA play with Slavic clichés and melancholic minor melodies which then pick up speed again and invite you to dance. The beat of the so-called "Turbo Polka" with a Jamaican Ska-Offbeat makes people’s feet and souls celebrate, excursions into punk rock and metal also make lovers of the harder genres bang their heads.
The upbeat powerful songs swing between countries, languages and cultures. The big bass baritone voice of lead singer Georgij Makazaria is supported by the hard and precise rhythm section as well as a melody section consisting of Violin, Saxophone and "Potete", a unique bass Trumpet.
Since 2008 RUSSKAJA are the house band of the Austrian late-night talk show "Willkommen Österreich" with Stermann & Grissemann, where they accompany the performances of star musicians in their own musical style.
Georgij Makazaria – voc / Lea-Sophie Fischer – violin / Nico Loro Ravenni – sax / H.-G Gutternigg – potete / Engel Mayr – guitar / Dima Miller – bass / Mario Stuebler – drums
