Jungle
The British electro-soul band will perform for the first time in Ukraine. Jungle started as a duo of two Londoners that tried adding falsetto to a tropical disco soul. A few singles and viral dance-focused music videos later Jungle grew into seven-piece collective of singers, instrumentalists and dancers that make audiences get down with a mash of funk, electropop and groovy disco. In Kyiv, Jungle will present their second album “For Ever.”
