Last week I got unique opportunity to participate in the
KOLORITfest 2013, in Prague - "An international music festival of Russian speakers' culture", organized by Chezch organization
Pragmatiki. The festival gathered delegations from 13 countries, consisting of Russian-speaking artists (or "artists") and organizations related to Russian-speaking culture. Finland's delegation was organized by
Logrus, and Evgeniy Kamardin got the 2nd place in the film contest. M.I.R. got a humble task to open the stage at Meetfactory before Carolle (GR) & Airwood (DE), and Anna Mantere had a clap-and-enjoy vocal performance at RockOpera.
There were three main themes in the festival: music, film and vocal contest. The music-part consisted of 13 bands, performing in different locations around Prague along the week. It was an amazing experience to see those bands, and also to share the stage with some of them! I was lucky to share the stage with a Greek and German band, Carolle and Airwood. The professionalism and atmosphere was amazing!
Airwood was headlining the largest stage (Meetfactory), and it was interesting to hear about them being an opening act for major Russian rock-stars in Germany. Their album is available to listen at their website.
I also enjoyed the funny-and-always-partying Timohi from Lithuania, they were great!
Here's one of their songs
