Old Ukrainian bandura from the 1st half of the 19th century, which belonged to the real kobzar, Yevhen O. Adamtsevych (Євген О. Адамцевич, 1903/1904-1972)

There is a Cossack on horseback depicted on this beautiful musical instrument:

I highly recommend the new album of Ukrainian band Vivienne Mort. Genre: indie rock/indie pop

The album is called "Фата". According to the musicians, the album is conceptual and is divided into three parts: realization and adaptation to the new reality, farewell to the old reality and blossoming of feelings, search for oneself and faith in the future.

[Image ID: A tiny kitten in a soup bowl looking lost and resigned to its fate. The text at the bottom reads: "eat me, drink me, go wild" with spelling mistakes made by a tiny silly kitten. /End ID]

The meme refers to the popular in '00s pop song by Gaitana with a catchy chorus that goes "drink me, eat me, go wild":

Did you listen to Volodymyr Ivasiuk today yet?

One of the best Ukrainian pop|estrade song writer and musician.

Killed by KGB in 1979 when he was only 30 y.o.

"We, Ukrainians, become nationalists from the cradle if our mothers sing us Ukrainian lullabies. That is why we are re-educated in concentration camps."

He was referring to the Soviet regime targeting people for being a tad more Ukrainian than was acceptable for them.

Kozak-bandurzysta. Козак-бандурист

Witaj Bohun, radam ci serdeńko, zagrasz nam dziś na bandurze!

Let's look at Him, this time playing one from his two "real" instruments: BANDURA, the Ukrainian Cossack folk instrument, for the first time recorded in a historical source in the mid-15th century. Just imagine, when Bohun played his bandura, the Cossack-bandurist's tradition was already c. 200 years old!

*The instrument's form here is rather modern (19th century) and the ornament is not entirely historically accurate, but I couldn't stop myself from giving Bohun a bandura adorned with lilies:-)

Wow, you have a nice sycamore tree!

[Image ID: A man with a gorgeous mustache (Ukrainian superstar singer and a meme, Stepan Giga) is giving a thumbs up. His figure is surrounded by a thin halo of twinkling sparkles. Sparkling text in the center reads “Wow, you have a nice sycamore tree!”. And yep, this is a penis joke. /End ID]

Actually, the meme refers to this song:

[Video ID: A man with a gorgeous mustache wearing a classy suit sings on the stage a beautifully melancholic song in Ukrainian about a sycamore tree growing on the grave. /End ID]
