Sonic Youth Release 1989 Kyiv Live Recording to Benefit Ukraine

played a show in Ukraine back in the spring of 1989. Today, the band released a live recording from their set in Kyiv on April 14, in which its proceeds will benefit World Central Kitchen and relief to Ukraine.. It was the band’s first trek into the former USSR, stopping in Vilnius, Leningrad, Moscow, and Kyiv. Gogol Bordello’s Eugene Hutz attended the Kyiv performance, and was forever changed by the captivating NYC underground rockers.

“That SY Kyiv show was life changing for all musicians that were there… we were already attuned to Nick Cave, Einsturzende Neubauten, S Pistols and Discharge but these were the new vitamins we needed. I made a decision to experience NY right there. Plus my friends VV were opening so i got in free 🤟🏼.
