Début: MONARHA “The voice of Ukraine, heard in London”

New artists, emerging talent, diverse voices and brilliant musicians: Début is our monthly evening devoted to spotlighting some of the best original music across a host of genres encompassing jazz, funk, soul, folk and pop (as well as everything in between). Our art deco basement, known for its brilliant acoustics and intimate atmosphere, is proud to showcase fine talents at affordable ticket prices – perfect for a great night out in the West End.

This live music show presents contemporary Ukrainian pop infused with jazz and R&B influences. The program features original songs performed live with a full band, delivering rich arrangements, groove-driven rhythms, and a refined, high-quality sound.

MONARHA’s music blends modern pop sensibility with jazz harmonies and R&B textures, creating a dynamic and emotionally engaging live experience. The sound is powerful, soulful, and sophisticated—designed to move both the body and the mind.

More than a concert, this performance is a complete audiovisual experience: food for the ears and food for the eyes. Live instrumentation, thoughtful musical dynamics, and carefully crafted stage aesthetics come together to immerse the audience in a modern Ukrainian soundscape.
