Oleg Ponomarev


I've got recently this great album of a superb violinist, bassist, pianist, guitarist, composer, arranger, producer, singer, teacher and wanderer Oleg Ponomarev.
His latest cd "The master of Russian gypsy violin" can be bought here.

After touring with the famous Russian/Gypsy Band LOYKO for 10 years, recording more than fifteen albums with various musicians, writing off two motorbikes and getting five stars at the Edinborough festival, Oleg has finally settled down in Ireland. He has been involved in many different music project. From 2003 he has been performing with French singer Caroline Moreau, he's also a member of a gypsy swing band The hot club of Dublin and gypsy & klezmer band Koshka.
