Всем Привет! Hello everyone, and welcome new subscribers!
I thought I’d slow things down a bit and round off some of the rough edges for this program, so on that note, please allow me to present Naadia.
Nadezhda Aleksandrovna Gritskevich (Надежда Александровна Грицкевич) AKA ‘Naadia’ was born in Kogalym in the Tyumen region of the USSR. She began her musical career in 2007 as vocalist for the band ‘Moremoney’ in collaboration with Ivan Kalashnikov (right). She is currently based in Moscow.
Naadia began her solo career in 2010, again in collaboration with Ivan Kalashnikov, along with musicians Maria Teryaeva (2013 to 2016) Pavel Dodonov, Sergey Burukhin and Oleg Zanin. Their latest release, Решения (Solutions) was in March 2023.
Naadia’s songs have been described as melancholic, introspective or just plain sad. Unrequited love, loneliness and despair are common themes, which reminds me of Elena Tonra (Daughter). The two could almost be sisters. So if moody is your thing, I invite you to enjoy an hour with Naadia, because no one does moody like she does!
