Waxing Crescent - Strilyai (Official Music Video)

Today is the Independence Day in Ukraine and exactly six months since the Russian invasion in Ukraine has started. Together with a crew of Dutch and international professional creatives from more than 10 countries we have combined our forces to bring out a new Waxing Crescent music video in support of Ukraine. “Strilyai” is an intense rendition of a song “Стріляй”, written by a legendary Ukrainian rock band Okean Elzy, which had been the voice of Ukrainian people for years. With the musical talents of a Dutch drummer Casper Bongers and a Curaçaoan bassist Fernandito Beaumont, we added the passion and aggression that fit to the message of the video. Support Ukraine, donate to Ukrainian charities, military and the people in need, speak out against the Russian aggression and keep talking about the war crimes perpetrated in Ukraine and our prisoners of war.
