Nogu Svelo! Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Nogu Svelo!, the legendary punk rock band originated in Russia and is now based in the United States. Known for their energetic sound and fearless political stance, the band continues to use music as a force for change, raising awareness about the ongoing war in Ukraine and standing against oppression. Fresh off the sixth leg of their world tour, which spanned 65 gigs across 64 cities in Europe, Asia, North and South America, Nogu Svelo! has not only brought their music to a global audience but also raised $100,000 for Ukraine through their performances. A Legacy of Resistance and Musical Innovation With a career spanning 35 years, Nogu Svelo! has built a cult following since their beginnings in 1988 as part of the famous Moscow Rock Laboratory. The band has released 16 full-length albums, 71 official music videos, and has won multiple awards across Russia and Europe, including MTV Russia’s Best Soundtrack Award. While Nogu Svelo! originally gained recognition in Russia, the band is now fully based in the U.S., delivering English-language versions of their biggest hits alongside brand-new material recorded with their American lineup. Frontman Max Pokrovskiy—the band’s lead singer, bassist, and principal songwriter—has been an outspoken critic of Vladimir Putin’s regime for years. Due to his support for Alexei Navalny and his unwavering anti-war stance, he has been banned from performing in Russia.
