This episode is a powerhouse showcase of international talent. IONU, the Russian rock band now lighting up the Shanghai music scene, brings serious energy, passion, and versatility. Known as the house band Red Star's at the iconic Pearl Theatre, they deliver top-tier tribute performances and original music that spans hard rock, funk, pop, and heavy metal.
The conversation gives listeners insight into their journey—from Russia to China, from cover shows to crafting their own distinct sound. Their debut album, Poison Waters launched in January 2025, is a testament to their musical range and commitment. The 3 tracks from the podcast are Taste of Love, Simple Song, and Crime.
Ksenia’s vocals are powerful and dynamic, Eugene’s basslines groove hard, Gil drives the rhythm with precision on drums, and Alexander shreds with soul on lead guitar. Their chemistry as a band comes through both in conversation and in every track. @ionu_offical @thepearlshanghai
