Vopli Vidopliassova
Vopli Vidopliassova (VV), the trailblazers of Ukrainian rock, bring their explosive 40th Anniversary North American Tour to Marlboro, NY for one unforgettable night at the legendary Falcon Club.
As the first Ukrainian band to tour internationally, VV brought the sound of Kyiv from the Soviet underground to the global stage — fusing punk, rock, folk, and funk into anthems that defined a generation. Their iconic songs — Vesna, Halia, Den Narodzhennia, Krayina Mriy, Lyubov — are now part of Ukraine’s cultural DNA.
VV has performed at the world’s biggest festivals — WOMAD, Sziget, Montreux Jazz Festival, Rock am Ring — and collaborated with international icons including Manu Chao, Khaled, and Eugene Hütz of Gogol Bordello, who calls VV his musical mentors.
The Marlboro performance will feature a very special collaboration with Matt Darriau — Balkan and klezmer music virtuoso and a founding member of the Grammy-winning band The Klezmatics.
Now, after nearly a decade, VV returns to North America for a landmark 14-show tour celebrating four decades of revolutionary sound. The Marlboro performance will feature a very special collaboration with Matt Darriau — Balkan and klezmer music virtuoso and a founding member of the Grammy-winning band The Klezmatics.
The tour also includes collaborations with other major North American acts with roots in Eastern Europe and Ukraine, including Eugene Hütz Trio, Lemon Bucket Orkestra, and members of Hazmat Modine and The Klezmatics.
🎤 Lead singer Oleg Skrypka is also the founder of Kraina Mriy, one of Ukraine’s most respected cultural festivals and now a major humanitarian foundation providing critical medical and logistical aid in Ukraine.
💙 This tour is more than music — it’s a mission.Each show is organized in collaboration with local Ukrainian charity funds and communities. 100% of auction proceeds will directly support humanitarian relief efforts in Ukraine via the Kraina Mriy Foundation.
