Diary of the May concert in St. Petersburg. Thank you all :)

Hooray! Today is June 6, and on this day at least two remarkable people were born, both named Sasha - Pushkin and Davydov! With the second I was fortunate to be acquainted personally, and I heartily congratulate him on his appearance in this world!



Besides the fact that Shurik plays concerts with me on guitar, he has his own band!



Here's a video for those, who want to learn more about Shurik and his hometown.



I think that all who are acquainted with Sasha, join the congratulations! Be healthy and full of ideas, my friend! Happy Birthday :)

Hello, friends!

I congratulate you on the summer and the International Children's Day! I wish you all good and fun, more sincere joy like in childhood and carefree feelings :)

Perhaps some of you have heard the song "Many people can not sleep" at concerts. My good friend Sveta Osipova from singer-songwriters club "Vostok" also heard this song and made a wonderful slide show of photos illustrating what that song is about. I was delighted when I saw it, and recorded a guitar variation on the theme of this song. Hopefully, you'll like it too.



Many thanks to Sveta and to the authors of photos!

New video by Shurik Davydov and Ilya Orlov about our trip to Novosibirsk in March 2010.

Short video of our concert trip with Shurik to Veliky Novgorod (April 25, 2010). Thanks to everyone who took part in it!

We are planning to make some more videos of our trips, if it looks interesting. I wish you all good!

Another short video from the studio "Neva" where BER-LINN is recording a new album.

So that you know about how we're doing with the album, I announce: we have completely finished with the drums and bass, recorded the main vocals and guitars. We'll do the editing now, mixing and recording other required things. There's a lot of work yet, but it all goes on so everything will be fine!

The album seems to be more melodious and musical, it is quite different in rhythm and mood comparing to "Love/War" and "V.P.N.S.". I hope that you would be interested to hear it, just like ourselves :)

See you at the upcoming concerts!
