“We are Ukrainian. It’s all in our genes. We are all strong,” Kazka’s Oleksandra Zaritska told the crowd at Austin’s Speakeasy.
As emergency sirens blared throughout the city, Zaritska, better known as Sasha, decided to drive the 20 kilometers to her mother’s house in the forest. The drive took nearly six hours, due to panicking Ukrainians queuing up at gas stations for fuel, water and other necessities.
“Every time we hear this sound, we just run into the bathroom. We are hiding behind two walls, all these dogs and all these people. It was crazy,” Zaritska says. “This sound was very loud. It’s really close. We never expected our house would be an epicenter of war.”: “You need to go right now.” The Russian military had surrounded her village, and there were concerns about thieves.
At the Speakeasy, Zaritska instructed the crowd repeatedly to make donations, “talk to your government” and attend a Sunday protest at the Texas State Capitol. “When we met with many Polish, German, Austrian music companies, they ask us, ‘How do you work?’ and I said, ‘I don’t know,'” says Nikitin, whose family was vacationing in Cyprus, when Russia invaded Ukraine. “We work each direction. We make a concert, we make a record.”
