Modern-day bards?

[Elena Clark]

Dear Emily,

Kirill Komarov has proven to be a hit with a number of my students: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UO1GAjq5ng.  He's not exactly a teenager any more but he's still performing and a number of his live performances are available on YouTube.  I had the good fortune to see him live and it was excellent.  You can also find lyrics for some of his songs online and they can also be useful for illustrating grammatical concepts--for example, "Путь дурака" has some good verbs of motion in it.

Best,
Elena Clark

Hello,

I have a teenaged student who has a strong interest in acoustic guitar.  He's struggling a bit with his study of Russian, and I'd like to jump-start him a bit by pointing to some artists that he could listen to in Russian.  But the only bard-poets/acoustic guitar musicians I'm aware of are from the 90's and earlier (Mityaev, Vystotsky, Okudzhava, Bashlachyov). Anyone know of any artists that'd be closer to him in age that play acoustic guitar?  And that samples of their songs can be found somewhere out there on the internet?

Thanks in advance!

Emily Saunders
