HELIUM JAM: This unique female rock band from Russia writes their own high-quality rock songs and are something of a phenomenon on the stages of Russian music venues. Singer Julia’s vocals have a direct and touching timbre, Masha’s guitar playing, which gets under the skin with the precision of her arrangements, is great. They make music that connects people and their love of freedom and their band doesn’t fit into any stereotypical genres.

HELIUM JAM was founded by Julia Bogel'fer and “Masha” (Maria Alysheva) in 2010. Since 2014 the band has been working with Studio "Diez" and AHOI-kultur and have played at many Russian and European festivals: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Berlin, Hamburg, Gothenburg, Warsaw and Narva.
