There are already almost 80 people and groups on the list of artists banned by the Kremlin

In early February, the staff of the Presidential Administration issued an updated list of banned musicians to promoters and producers. It already has 77 Russian artists and groups. A new list of 50 names was published by “Meduza” with reference to independent mutual sources in the music industry.

The updated (or additional) list includes visitors to the so-called naked party organized by blogger Nastya Ivleeva, artists who did not speak out about the war and performed at “patriotic” festivals, and musicians who spoke out against the war.

So, the performers Philip Kirkorov, Lolita Milyavskaya, Glukoza, Dima Bylan, Anna Asty were included in the list. At the same time, after the “naked party” Dima Bylan publicly traveled to the occupied territories of Ukraine and allocated money for an animal shelter and prostheses for military personnel.

The reasons for inclusion in the stop list are not attached to the list. It included, for example, the participants of the patriotic festival KinchevFest: “Mongol Shuudan”, “Yorsh” and “Plan Lomonosov”.

The list was also supplemented by anti-war musicians: rapper Loqiemean, Shortparis, the group “Neschastnyi slasov” and, separately, its soloist Alexey Kortnev. The list also included the singer Dead Blonde, who did not express her position.

Three names from the new list are duplicated with the list of banned artists published by “Fontanka” in July 2022 – singers Dora and Musa Totybadze, as well as the group “Unfortunate Accident”.

Both sources told Medusa that the list was released directly from the Kremlin. Another source confirmed to the publication the ban on events and outdoor advertising with artists from the list. Apparently, it can also include Krystyna Orbakaite, whose concerts began to be canceled all over Russia – the “patriots” did not like the fact that she did not speak out about the war, regularly travels to the USA and does not criticize her anti-war mother, the artist Alla Pugacheva.
