Singer-songwriter Maryna Krut, known in her homeland as KRUTЬ, is a virtuoso of the 64-stringed bandura, an instrument unique to her homeland of Ukraine. Taking two hands to play, the bandura offers a sound similar to a harpsichord. Krut is a master of the instrument, simultaneously playing bass notes, accompanying chords and melody lines.
Though Ukrainian folk serves as the foundation for her music, her songs draw on soul and jazz influences — and her incredible vocals tie it all together. Krut has been a finalist in the Eurovision Song Contest and performed internationally, but she has also brought her music to Ukrainian soldiers in the current war zone.
