Siberian Train Band

Siberian Train Band is a collective from Saint Petersburg, born in the vast expanses of Siberia. The official birthday of STB is August 1, 2020. On this day, the first song of the project was written by Konstantin Vigotsky and arranged by Yulia Ivanova. And this happened in the vastness of Siberia on a train moving along the Trans-Siberian Railway from the east to the west of Russia. On the stretches between the cities of Siberia, 6 more compositions were born, which later entered the debut album, titled "The Russian Album", recorded at Uradion Music Studio by sound engineer Oleg Pozhidaev. The album was released on all global digital platforms exactly on the band's next birthday - August 1, 2021. At that time, STB was essentially a one woman band, where Yulia performed all vocal and instrumental parts for accordion and piano. Also, in the composition "Love remains the same", there was a keyboard solo by the famous American musician Derek Sherinian (Sons of Apollo, Black Country Communion, Whitesnake, ex-Dream Theater, Kiss, Billy Idol, Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force). On December 30, 2021, the band's second release was released - the EP "Still Rock", which included alternative versions of three tracks from the first record, as well as an absolutely new title track, which is the soundtrack to a short film. This composition also became the first step in changing the band's sound. At the moment, work is actively underway on the band's second album, "Two Alone", which is planned for release in the summer of 2022. Oleg Pozhidaev has joined the line-up of the collective, now responsible not only for sound engineering but also for the rhythm section, and the participation of a large number of session musicians is planned, including a trumpeter, a violinist, and two guitarists.
