DIVKA

Slavic + folk fatale

DIVKA is comprised of bandurist Alina Kuzma and violist Zoë Ëoz. As a sonic rebel reckoning, DIVKA's music is charged with mythology, traditional village singing, and generations of femme power, whimsy, and a dash of vengeance.

Sharp-tongued and deeply passionate for ethnomusicology, Alina Kuzma and Zoë Ëoz bring a unique sonic experience using bygone folk songs from global women's music-making traditions. DIVKA weaves a sonic constellation of delicate arpeggios and guttural ancient invocations.

 Alina Kuzma, a tradition-refocusing bandurist and vocal forest nymph, brings a rich waterfall of sound with her mastery of the bandura. Her ethereal vocals and skillful plucking transport listeners to a mystical realm where folklore comes alive.

Zoë Ëoz, a chaos-nurturing violist and raging woodland sprite, adds depth and tension to DIVKA's sound. Their viola balances wild energy with refined technique, equally alarming and enchanting audiences with her spirited performances.

Alina and Zoë create a musical landscape that haunts and envigorates, blending deep knowledge of traditional music with contemporary oomph. Their performances are a celebration of femme power and the enduring strength and creativity of women throughout the ages.

Experience the magic and rebellion of DIVKA in the heart of village myth and modern mystique.
