Yat Kha

Rich Mix, East London’s independent arts venue in collaboration with Dash Blaze, is proud to present Russian band Yat Kha plus support.

Founded in Moscow in 1991 as a collaborative project between Albert Kuvezin formerly of Huun-Huur-Tu and Russian avant-garde, electronic composer Ivan Sokolovsky, Yat Kha blends traditional Tuvan folk music with post-modern rhythms and electronics.

Yat Kha is named after the giant zither that lead singer Albert Kuvezin often plucks at on stage. But at other times he'll be grinding out fuzzed up riffs from an electric guitar, which shows the two main hooks in their unique sound.

Part of Dash Blaze, a firework burst of music and performance with artists from the Post Soviet States. With an ear finely tuned to sounds from around the globe, Rich Mix Music offers the night out for curious ears.
