Russian chanson, accordion answers the vocal and replies to backing voices, acoustic guitar strums, rounded bass and restrained brushed drums; steady mid-tempo two-step sway; warm male baritone with conversational phrasing and faint Balkan inflection, dry and up-front, with close call-and-response backing voices; intimate verses open into a memorable singalong chorus, with lived-in room tone and a clear, natural vocal mix.
