Океан Ельзи Concerts Setlist

Okean Elzy (Океан Ельзи) is a Ukrainian rock band formed in 1994, in Lviv, led by vocalist Svyatoslav Vakarchuk. The band originated from a group called "Klan Tishiny," formed by Andrey Golyak and friends, which included Denis Glynin, Pavel Gudimov, and Yuri Khustochka. The group later transitioned to form "Okean Elzy," with Vakarchuk as the main vocalist. In Okean Elzy's early years, they recorded a demo cassette and performed their first public concert in 1995, only one year after their debut. They gained attention with their maxi-single "Budynok zi Skla" in 1996 and began touring internationally.

By 1998, they released the album "Tam, de nas nema," which became a hit in Ukraine. Throughout their career, Океан Ельзи performed in Paris and gained recognition in Russia, particularly after their songs were featured in the film "Brother 2." They also won several awards, including "Breakthrough of the Year" and "Best Song" at the Tavriya Games festival. After "Ya na nebi buv," Okean Elzy added Dmitry Shurov as a keyboardist and released "Model," winning "Best Pop Group" at the Tavriya Games in 2000 and 2001.

In 2013, they recorded "Earth" in Brussels, with Vladimir Opsenitsa replacing Petr Chernyavsky. Океан Ельзи also released "Obiymy" and toured for their 20th anniversary in 2014, and quickly after that, the rock band stopped performing in Russia. By 2024, Океан Ельзи announced an English album and released "Toy Den."
