About the MUR band
WALL – a Ukrainian band that emerged after the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. Its members include: Oleksandr Khomenko (lyrics, recitative), Viktor Tkachenko (lyrics, music, sound production) and Mykola Shmundyr (recitative, PR).
“Until February 24, many of us listened to Russian music, adored Russian literature, cinema… And did not see a problem in this. But now you can’t just say: “We won’t be like this anymore!” – something must be done, done for the sake of one’s own culture, history, nation…” – band members previously told the Muzvar publication.
The group set itself the goal of creating songs based on the poems of Ukrainian poets and writers. In addition, they create documentary videos about the history of Ukrainian literature and music: about the song “Shchedryk”, Tychyna, Bagryany, Stus and Simonenko.
In the summer of 2022, the band gave their first solo concert and released their first album MYR vol.1. The second album was released in the fall of 2022 “Free little book”.
But he brought the band the greatest popularity album-musical about the poets of the Shot Renaissance and the residents of the House “Slovo” – You [Романтика].
