Award-winning Kyiv-based Ukrainian quartet DakhaBrakha returns to Australia in March 2027 for a series of headline performances and festival appearances.

On a mission to connect Ukraine with the rest of the world, the global ambassadors merge traditional Ukrainian folk with contemporary sounds.

Touring in support of their latest album Prakh, which was written and recorded before and during Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the quartet have announced five shows, kicking things off in Adelaide at WOMADelaide from Saturday 6 to Monday 8 March.

DakhaBrakha then plays Melbourne's Hamer Hall on Wednesday 10 March before heading to New Zealand for WOMAD Aotearoa from Friday 12 to Sunday 14 March. They wrap up their tour with two shows in Australia at Brisbane's Queensland Performing Arts Centre on Wednesday 17 March and Sydney's City Recital Hall on Thursday 18 March.

Tickets are on sale now at artsprojects.com.au.

Meaning "Give/Take" in the old language, DakhaBrakha pay homage to their heritage and history while taking influence from jazz, rap, punk and even nature, crafting music that speaks to people around the globe.

The vocal range of members Nina Garenetska, Olena Tsybulska, Iryna Kovalenko and Marko Halanevych is impressive, and alongside founding director Vladyslav Troitskyi, the quartet tell incredible stories of the Ukrainian people.

Having wowed audiences at Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, WOMAD UK and Glastonbury Festival, DakhaBrakha's Australia and New Zealand return is one not to be missed.

Catch DakhaBrakha performing at WOMADelaide at Botanic Park/Tainmuntilla from Friday 5 to Monday 8 March 2027. Tickets are now on sale at womadelaide.com.au.
