Description

The Leningrad group is a legendary Russian rock band founded on January 13, 1997. The main person and inspiration for the group is Sergey Shnurov, who from the very beginning was not only a bass guitarist, but also a frontman and vocalist. Since its foundation, the Leningrad group has become one of the most popular and recognizable musical groups in Russia.

In the first years of its existence, the Leningrad group was distinguished by its eccentric image, which included drunk musicians on stage and abundant use of obscene language in the lyrics. This style, characteristic of many underground bands of that time, became the group's calling card. With the release of the second album, Mat bez Elektricheskie (Mat without Electricity), the number of obscene expressions in the songs increased significantly, which only fueled interest in the group.

A real breakthrough to wide popularity occurred in 2000, when the tracks of the Leningrad group began to sound on Nashe Radio, and about ten of their songs were used as a soundtrack in the film DMB-2. The third album, Dachniki, and participation in major music festivals such as Nashestvie and Krylya cemented the group's success.

In the 2010s, female soloists appeared in the Leningrad group, which brought a new sound and allowed them to create several hits with female vocals, which became another calling card of the group. Sergey Shnurov continues to be the ideological inspirer, author of songs, music and videos, which makes him inseparable from the group.

Despite several lineup changes and breaks in activity, the popularity of the Leningrad group and its frontman Sergey Shnurov remains unchanged. Their songs resonate with a wide audience due to their sincerity and lack of censorship. Shnurov has repeatedly emphasized that the group's success lies in its ability to say from the stage what's on everyone's mind.

The Leningrad group continues to delight its fans with new tracks that are gaining millions of views on YouTube. The concert schedule and poster can be viewed on our website. Buying tickets on our website is easy and fast, which will allow you to enjoy the live performance of this legendary group.
