Description

Indie musician and podcaster Alexey Ponomarev will perform at the Bar for the first time with his project Joker James. The program will feature songs from various albums—both old and new hits, which have become even more poignant in the current circumstances. === ‌ Joker James is a project by musician Alexey Ponomarev. It's a celebration of the bardrap genre, encompassing hip-hop grooves, the legacy of Russian rock, and echoes of the British 60s. Emotions accumulated over years of working in independent media spill out into poignant tracks on topical issues and melancholy ballads about the futility of everything. JJ's lyrical protagonist often completely merges with the author: many of his friends are truly "foreign agents," he's been following the war in Ukraine since 2014, and since then he's been ridiculing all sorts of "patriots" and defenders, proudly counting himself among national traitors and a fifth columnist. At his concerts, Alexey constantly experiments, running his voice and guitar through a chain of effects, layering parts to create a captivating sonic canvas. The Rodina Tour program includes tracks from his new album of the same name and all of JJ's biggest hits. ‌ ‌Age rating: 16+
