The Root Boys. On the Air.
These guys are familiar to you – in the same composition as here, but with a bit different name they not that long ago released the album "Dig That Roots!" But if that album was a sort of a tribute to the sources, a collection of time-tested, classic "hard hits", this one is built exceptionally on authors' material. However, the musicians do not betray their tastes, therefore associated intonations are guaranteed – although there is not a single song in the ordinary understanding on the album (that is, there are no vocals at all). But the music palette remained no less bright – this is, ultimately, already a brand name, programmatic cocktail: in the atmosphere of the middle of the last century, melodies with characteristic features of country, rockabilly, blue-grass styles are mixed, with some elements of jazz and rock. In order that such music were live, mobile – one should not just know it, but also love truly. And it is nice to hear literally at every step, in every sound of the album that "The Root Boys" both are great experts in their business, and they do love this strange, and sometimes eccentric romanticism of spaces a bit different from ours...

Ot Vinta. Pilotka. /digi-pack/. (The Forage Cap)


..there is so much drive that one can hardly believe its "acousticity". And one of the causes of such sound is the truly rich set of instruments used by the musicians during the recording (guitar, banjo, harmonica, kazoo, ukulele, flute, kozobass, xylophone, etc.). Very rich and bright – just like always with "Ot Vinta"..

Ot Vinta. Potom i krovju. /limited, eco-pack/. (With Sweat and Blood)


To your attention – the second release of the album in another (cardboard) packaging. ...And then you somehow suddenly realize that you listen to topical songs, poignant enough to feel reluctant to laugh – but, at the same time, so fiery that, nevertheless, this does not destroy the mood...

Ot Vinta. Potom i krovju. (With Sweat and Blood)


First, everything is as ever – loads of drive and salty humor, easy-going fun and tricky jibes. And then you somehow suddenly realize that you listen to topical songs, poignant enough to feel reluctant to laugh – but, at the same time, so fiery that, nevertheless, this does not destroy the mood...

The Root Boys. Dig That Roots!


...the project of Bohdan Ocheretyany, better known to the wide public as the drummer of the Mad Heads. But, as known, a few years ago Mad Heads turned into Mad Heads XL and started playing a bit different music. Therefore, in 2005, having recorded the album "Hope Is There" with them, Bohdan Ocheretyany left the group and then completely devoted himself to Mr. Och & His Root Boys.

Mad Heads. Psycholula.


...for Ukraine this group and this album present a real classical music. Even today there are not so many groups, which are interested in real rockabilly, and the group “Mad Heads” is undoubtedly the best known among them...
