Making its Manhattan debut \u2013 direct from Ukraine\u2014Kommuna Lux is a hi-energy seven-piece band whose \u201cOdesa gangsta folk\u201d has been thrilling audiences for almost a decade with its beguiling mix of Klezmer and rowdy speakeasy tunes that have a bohemian Black Sea coastal vibe.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn Odesa, people find togetherness. In Odesa, all will laugh and sing.\"<\/h4>\n

In 2014, surprised residents of Odesa encountered flash mobs making music all around town: at the Privoz market, on the old #5 wooden tram line, along the Primorsky Boulevard promenade, and on rusty, rocking boats at Lustdorf Beach. Concerts followed \u2013 in Ukraine, across Europe, in Israel. Since the Russian invasion, Kommuna Lux has been lifting spirits with its dazzling rhythms, refreshing anarchy, and joie de vivre<\/em> while at the same time raising money to support the humanitarian effort in Ukraine.<\/p>\n
