Musical artist
Braty Hadiukiny (Ukrainian: Брати Гадюкіни), or simply Hady (Ukrainian: Гади) is a Ukrainian rock band from Lviv, one of the most successful Ukrainian bands of Soviet times. The band's musical style combines different genres such as rock'n'roll, blues, punk, reggae, funk and folk. Ironic song lyrics contain a lot of local vernacularisms, slang and surzhyk. The name translates as "Hadyukin Brothers", where the fictional last name Hadyukin is derived from the word hadyuka, or "viper". The abbreviation literally means "snakes" (In Ukrainian the two words are cognates.)
The band was active mainly between 1988 and 1996. In January 2006 they held a big solo concert in Kyiv which was a big event in Ukrainian media space and was visited by a lot of famous people (including Yulia Tymoshenko the prime minister at the time). After the band's leader Serhiy Kuzminskyi died in 2009 a big tribute concert was held in 2011, joined by prominent Ukrainian rock musicians such as Komu Vnyz, Vopli Vidoplyasova, Okean Elzy and others. In 2014 the rest of the band members released a new album (the first one since 1996).
