Bard

The music genre "bard" refers to a Russian style of acoustic singer-songwriter music that emerged during the Soviet era. It is characterized by its simple yet poignant use of guitar melodies paired with narrative lyrics that often delve into themes of love, life's trials, philosophical introspection, and sometimes subtle political commentary. The musicians, typically solo performers, are regarded as poets and storytellers, weaving their personal experiences and observations into their songs. Their intimate performances often encourage audience participation, creating a communal atmosphere. The genre is deeply rooted in Russian culture and intellectual discourse, with performers like Semyon Slepakov and Andrey Makarevich celebrated for their lyrical craft and ability to connect with listeners on a profound level.
