Lucidvox
About the band
Firmly established as an influential voice in the burgeoning Russian DIY rock scene, Lucidvox’s incendiary mixture of atmospheric psych-rock, heavy riffs and Russian folk mystery has already gained them both critical attention and audience loyalty outside of their hometown of Moscow.
Lucidvox is comprised of four women based in Moscow: Alina (vocals/flute), Nadezhda (drums), Galla (guitar) and Anna (bass). Formed in 2013, according to Galla their inception was “a bit like a joke". After a year or so of playing cover songs, the band began to assemble original material which had their own sonic footprint. The songs take shape both from contributions brought into the rehearsal space by any one of the members and subsequent collective improvisation and discussion. The lyrics for the most part revolve around intense personal experiences. Even as their international reputation has grown, they have never considered singing songs in English, and in the band's sonic explorations, there has always been a subtle nod to Russian traditional music and folklore.
