Sakura, a Russian rock band performing indie rock compositions, was formed in 2001. The team includes vocalist Alexei Karpov (karp!), solo guitarist Danila Silin (nedone), guitarist Alexei Lovyagin (lova), drummer Andrei Solomatin (biva), bass guitarist Sergey Plotnikov (plot) and spoonman Pavel Anchutin (pavlik enemy).
Since the formation of the team "Sakura" musicians spend several years in search of their own style and the formation of the team. Their debut album, Greatest Hits, appeared only in 2006, recorded by the band and their friends. The style of the record is an alternative rock, "mixed" with small changes in sound quality. In autumn 2007, the EP "Letter of Confession - does not require an answer" was published.
Soon the band began to perform concerts all over the country, in addition, the group “Sakura” invited to participate in various music festivals – for example, “TATU3000”, “Emmaus” and RAMP. And the following year, Sakura was awarded the RAMP 2007 award as “Best Underground Act of the Year”, and in 2008 received the Golden Gargoyle for “Best Independent Project”.
By 2008, the theme of the compositions became more and more similar to spiritual romanticism, and the music manifested melodic dance groove. On the wave of musical transformation, in the summer of 2009, a disc called “The New Magic” appeared. The arrangement of the compositions is carried out at Exchange Studio by the famous London maestro Graeme Durham, who previously worked with the collectives.
Prodigy , House of Pain et al. The lyrics of this disc are quite philosophical, they not only ask questions, but also give “reasonable answers”.
A distinctive feature of the group “Sakura” can be safely called the atmosphere of performances. Each concert is a real show: the carnival, the night party, accompanied by always great music. /
