    This is the season that seems filled with music.

    I present for your consideration - music from Russia
    Otava Yo (Russian: Отава Ё, ота́ва meaning "aftergrass"[1]) is a Russian folk rock band from Saint Petersburg, formed in 2003.

    A modern folk-rock band with a real vibe worth a listen.

    I hope you enjoy-





    some of these videos offer marquee style translations if you find the music of interest.

    The group has toured the world and met with great acceptance. I think you'll find the music 'addictive' after listening to a few of these songs...

    Ganado. That is pretty cool. I have heard bits and pieces of that but it really covers a lot of ground.
    That said, I think my mind has burned out on Classical (left brain 10 years of piano lessons) and Rock (right brain 70's). I turn on tune in drop out when listening to either.

    Then there is rap "music". I am not ready to accept that as transcendent.
