Colir

Now ("Kolir" herring) you can not only see, but also hear.

Kolir is a Ukrainian indie-folk group founded in 2014 in Odessa. In 2015, the Kolir group became one of the best musical discoveries according to the authoritative Ukrainian musical resource Kultprostor.

"Kolir" is two girls: one is red (Lyuda Koller, vocals), and the other is curly (Anya Provozin, keyboards, backing vocals), who write and sing about what they feel. Most recently Slava Tilik joined them and took his place at the drum set.

Earlier, Lyudmila Koller was a participant in the "X-factor" and "Battle of the Choirs". But this was not enough for the girl and she initiated the creation of the group. All "colored" creativity is born on a whim, and not in agony. It happens spontaneously and unexpectedly. Inspiration in music comes from the country, people, trees, air, a sense of freedom and everything around and beyond. It is thanks to the sincerity of "Kolir" that they won the hearts of hundreds of listeners. Behind him are many Odessa sites, a tour of Ukraine and a large Belarusian tour.

Young, determined and incredibly talented performers have already visited different parts of the country and neighboring countries. They won the hearts of the people of Moldova and Transnistria. We took part in such festivals as VishFest (Vyshyvanka Festival) -2014-2015 (Odessa), Banderstat-2015 (Lutsk), Lviv Acoustic Fest - 2016 (Lviv), Woodstok Ukraine - 2016 (Svirzh), RazomFest-2015 (Lviv)...

The official release of the debut full-length album, Who Else But Us, took place at the end of May 2016. The seven main songs and one bonus track of the album are very different in mood, each song has its own "color". Lyudmila Koller said that the guys devoted themselves to this creative work without a trace, and the final result turned out to be really conceptual: he calls, calls, shouts - to live, get up, fight for their happiness.

And already in October 2017, Odessans presented their new single "The Devil", which is based on a poem by a prominent representative of modern Ukrainian literature, Sergei Zhadan. And this, by the way, is not the first work of the collective, created in dedication to the famous writer and poet, because before music lovers had the opportunity to get acquainted with their work "Swim, fish, swim".

The recording of the new single took place at the local Odessa studio Dark Blue Records, and Andrey Mukhamet was engaged in its mixing and mastering.

According to the front woman of the group Lyudmila Koller, twice, almost by accident, Zhadan's poetry collection ended up at the rehearsal base of the team, and both times it marked the birth of a new composition.
