Music With Matt: My Favorite Music From Ukraine

With Ukraine being in the news every day at the time of this video, (and probably many more times in the future) I wanted to look at Ukraine not from a political or geographical standpoint as it usually is, but from an artistic lens. In this video, I discuss some of my favorite artists and albums from Ukraine, in hopes of introducing viewers to more about Ukraine than what they have heard on the news. This is not a complete overview of the music in Ukraine, just a small sampling of some of my favorites from there. There may be additional installments in the future to cover more of the great artists there!
