About the show
Stoptime are heading out on tour with their debut album “В никуда с ниоткуда” — a musical diary of the past few years, weaving together freedom, protest, emigration, love, and the search for home.
We remember this journey step by step. The first moment of shock and the goosebumps from the brave girl on Nevsky Prospekt, singing Noize MC’s “Где вы были восемь лет, ***ные нелюди?” in defiance of the bans. A voice breaking through the silence with the words of Monetochka’s “Ты солдат.” Photos from the courtroom and a video message about how Sasha proposed to Diana right inside a police van, between yet another round of “carousel” arrests. And that long-awaited moment when, after weeks of isolation, Diana finally took the stage with Noize MC and Monetochka to perform “Светлая полоса” together.
In Israel, Diana and Stoptime’s story resonated especially deeply — a rally was held in Tel Aviv in her support, while the music of street protests became a symbol of inner freedom for thousands of people, both those who left and those who stayed.
Their first original album, “В никуда с ниоткуда,” is a cohesive story born between the streets of St. Petersburg, arrests, and emigration. Each track becomes a new chapter, tied together by one central question: “Am I a good person?”
Naoko and Alexander are joined in the band’s renewed live lineup by musicians Aviv (drums) and David (bass guitar) Bortnik, who inherited the talent of their famous father. With their arrival, Stoptime have gained a fuller, more powerful and energetic live sound.
The program will also feature cover versions of beloved songs that have long been part of the band’s live performances, creating the unique atmosphere of their concerts.
