Dana Sokolova and Jesus will perform rock covers in the show "Salt. The legend"

Singers Dana Sokolova and Jesus will perform rock covers in the new stage of the musical show "Salt. The legend." Experimental interpretations of famous hits await the audience.

Sokolova chose a complex male ballad by the Aria group, and Jesus will present his own version of Chicherina's popular song, with which he was previously little familiar.

Nevertheless, this is a battle for the steel guitar and the recognition of the audience, they also vote after each song along with the jury, and it is full of masters and stars: Vadim Samoilov, founder of the Agatha Christie group, rap artist ST, producer Viktor Drobysh.

The fourth member of the jury is replaceable and can be not only a musician, but also a producer or actor, which makes his assessment closer to the opinion of an ordinary viewer. Also, the author of the original song chosen for the cover sometimes acts in this role, which adds additional excitement to the participants.

Singer Dana Sokolova noted that she took part in the project with kind irony and enjoyed the performance, stressing that she did not consider the show as a competition.

"To be honest, she only handled the interpretation of our song, she passed on everything else. Imagine you have a small bathhouse, and you need so much firewood, and you brought a KAMAZ truck like this, and they filled up the whole bathhouse," said Yuri Muzychenko, musician and leader of The Hatters band.

Next is a song that has been on Jesus' playlists for a long time. All kinds of weirdos did not cover the "Carpet", but the author is sitting opposite, you can catch helicopters in your head.

"What do you think, of course, it's exciting. It's always exciting, but when you like a song, you go out as best you can, you play, you do what you have to do. The song is cool — that's the most important thing," said Jesus.

According to Samoilov, such projects help to restore the connection between generations of musicians and expand the boundaries of genres.
