(חבקי אותי) ISRAELI MUSICANS IN SUPPORT OF THE PEOPLE OF UKRAINE - HUG ME

The song Hug Me (ОБIЙМИ МЕНЕ) was written by Svyatoslav Vakarchuk, leader and frontman of one of Ukraine’s most popular rock bands Okean Elzy. Instead of assembling crowds at stadiums, he is forced to stand and protect his land. We are a bunch of Israeli musicians, professionals and amateurs, old-timers and newcomers, and we’ve decided to translate the song into Hebrew and record it as a sign of support for the people of Ukraine in this turbulent time. This is a hug from Israel for you, Ukraine. • Hebrew Lyrics by Lev Etin • Mixing & Mastering by Philipp Barsky • Produced by Lev Etin & Philipp Barsky Lev Etin – keyboards, backing vocals Pavel Ryazanov – acoustic guitar, vocals Elizaveta Khurgin – vocals Gennady Birenberg – bass, vocals Andrey Makarevich – vocals, electric guitar Alex Kotler – vocals Kate Abramson – drums Neta Irmay – cello Gennady Talis – electric violin Valerie MacLin – flute
