# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Kommuna Lux
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 17 May, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Sun, 17 May, 2026 at 09:00 pm (-07:00)
- **Event Description**: “In Odesa, people find togetherness. In Odesa, all will laugh and sing." Ukraine’s Kommuna Lux validates these words from an old poem, performing their own style called "Odesa Gangsta Folk," a mix of thrilling klezmer music and common gangster folk songs from their hometown, all with a dose of rocket fuel.

Odesites have always been known for their great tolerance, easy-going lifestyle, and very special sense of humor. This multicultural port city is world-famous for its significant Jewish culture and for being the birthplace of the Urban Chanson genre. The streets are rich with nostalgia and a bohemian Black Sea coastal vibe. These are set to a timeless new level by the vibrant performances of the lovely singer Bagrat Tsurkan and his charming musicians. Kommuna Lux plays joyful songs and melodies from Odesa and all Eastern Europe in spiced up arrangements.
