VEDAN KOLOD was created by Tatiana and Valery Naryshkin.
Vedan Kolod shows the musical culture of ancient and medieval Russia, when instrumental music was closely intertwined with the vocal tradition. Master Valery Naryshkin restores rare Slavic instruments such as the war horn,zhaleyka, bagpipes, drums, gusli, hurdy-gurdy and others.
The repertoire of Vedan Kolod includes original songs based on Old Russian language, authentic and folklore songs of the Siberian people, myths and legends of Western Russia, arranged by Tatyana Naryshkina.
The influence of steel guitar on genres like Delta blues and country has long been underrepresented; this compilation aims to set the record straight. Bandcamp Album of the Day May 5, 2022
