DakhaBrakha is a project of the Dakh Contemporary Arts Center, led by Vladyslav Troitskyi and born as a live theater music crew. Troitskyi continues to be the band's producer. Members of DakhaBrakha participate in the centre's other projects, notably in the all-female cabaret project Dakh Daughters, as well as in the annual Gogolfest festival.
Name etymology
The group's name derives from Ukrainian verbs Давати and Брати, meaning "give" and "take", respectively – while also playing on the Art Centre's name "Dakh" (literally "roof" in Ukrainian).
All of the members except Marko Halanevych are graduates of the Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts. Nina Garenetska also takes part in the Dakh Daughters project.
