Gradually, they began collaborating with an American label, and then with a Ukrainian one – ENKO.
In 2021, there was already Kalush Orchestra, and a year later they went to Eurovision to represent our country at a very difficult time, because that was when the full-scale war unleashed by Russia began.
In general, Alina Pash won the National Selection with the song “Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors”, but the guys took second place. It later turned out that the singer had forged a certificate about a trip to the temporarily occupied Crimea in 2015, which contradicts the rules of the competition.
So, Kalush Orchestra went to Turin, Italy and conquered the audience not only with their song, but also with their charisma and style. In addition, Oleg Psyuk shouted on stage: “Help Mariupol, help Azovstal now!”, because then the Ukrainian defenders found themselves surrounded by Russian soldiers.
