Modern-day bards?

And I can't help noting that gluxar' in Gaelic is capull-coille -
Capercaillie - which some  of us should recognise ..

Dear Emily,

Another somewhat more recent bard is Alexander Litvinov, better known as
Venya Drkin. He died early but left a growing fan base, and he represents
something of a post-bard use of the genre, with a pronounced rock
influence, which could be a good addition to the more traditional Gnezdo
gluharia sort of form. Oh, and maybe Kim for a more humorous take on the
genre?

Best wishes,

Eugenia

discovered recently that he's still an icon amongst young Russians even
today when I was treated to a verse of 'Pachka Sigaret' by a group of 18 -
22 year old - a sort of Kurt Cobain figure.

They stage concerts by younger artists as well as by representatives of the
older generation such as Veronika Dolina and Alexander Dolskii.

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?
