Bio
Vopli Vidopliassova (often shortened to VV, Ukrainian: Воплі Відоплясова) is a legendary Ukrainian rock band formed in 1986 in Kyiv during the Soviet era. They are widely credited as pioneers of Ukrainian rock‑and‑roll and neo‑ethnic rock, blending punk energy, rock, folk traditions and eclectic influences to create a distinct and culturally resonant sound. Led by charismatic frontman Oleh Skrypka, VV were among the first Ukrainian bands to take rock music beyond their country’s borders, becoming influential both at home and abroad. Over their long career they’ve released numerous albums (including Tantsi, Kraina Mriy and Chudovy svit) and performed at major international festivals, earning a reputation for energetic live shows and artistic innovation. Their music incorporates elements of punk rock, folk‑rock, psychedelic and world influences, and they’ve remained relevant for decades, celebrating milestones such as their 40th anniversary tour in 2025 that brought their iconic sound to audiences around the world.
