The full name of this spring song (which is an actual dance) Ой летіла через село (it flew through the village). It's from our first and only workshop performance - this is a slightly edited live recording, partially improvised and transitions immediately into the next piece весна зиму похилила. When we performed it it was all one long piece. Still a work in progress but excited to see it develop.  Hope you like it. It was fun!

Singinkuz's general MO is to jazz up folk songs and folk up jazz tunes with the desire to tickle the listeners' senses and possibly getting them singing along.  

On a more formal note, Andrea Kuzmich (singinkuz) is an award winning singer, a teacher, an ethnomusicologist, and composer/arranger. She has performed in and/or recorded with numerous artists, ensembles and choirs: from Whitney Smith’s Big Steam Band to the conventional SATB Choir of Toronto’s Trinity-St. Paul's United Church or the exquisite chamber style of the Aradia Ensemble; from the contemporary improvised new music provided for the soundtracks of The Witch and The Tall Grass or the backing vocals to Tanya Tagaq, to the ultra traditional Georgian and Ukrainian folk musics of Darbazi, ZARI, Ori Shalva, the Kosa Choir, Kalendar or Sing With Ukraine.
