Music project WARSOBA was initially a duo, called AGATA, and was created in 2015 by Irena Kotvitskaya and Alexey Vorsoba in Minsk, Belarus. By virtue of an original authors’ approach, the pre-Christian texts and authentic dialects have gained a unique sound, when performed by the two musicians. The presentation of the project took place in August 2015 at XVI International Fest of Belarusian Identity «Trialoh», held in Krynki, Poland. In 2016 the musicians organized and took part in a new music festival «Belaruski Styl» («Беларускі Стыль») in Minsk. During the same year the duo began cooperating with VG Music Label (Music by VG in BMI publishers, USA), which handled the digital distribution of AGATA’s music. A bit later the musicians were invited by a tango-community to make a short journey round Sweden, during which they were revealing new sides of their music concept.
