YALANSKA is a vibrant Ukrainian indie-pop project led by singer-songwriter Yana Shemaieva, known for blending moody electronic textures with raw, confessional lyrics. Emerging from Kharkiv’s music scene, Shemaieva started the act as a solo endeavor before evolving it into a full-band experience, capturing listeners with her soulful vocals and relatable storytelling. Their tracks, like the bittersweet "Дура" (Fool) and the introspective "Моє серце" (My Heart), often explore themes of love, self-discovery, and emotional growing pains, wrapped in dreamy synths and alt-pop beats.
With releases like "Дощ" (Rain) and "Ти і Я" (You and I), YALANSKA has cemented its place in Ukraine’s indie landscape, balancing melancholic vibes with catchy melodies. Their music resonates with Gen Z audiences for its unfiltered honesty and modern production, while live performances add an energetic, communal layer to their studio sound. Though details about their origin story remain low-key, their growing catalog—including recent hits like "Жити" (To Live)—proves they’ve mastered the art of turning personal chaos into cathartic bops.
