Shortparis

A hypnotic force redefining experimental music with raw energy and boundary-pushing artistry. Singing in Russian, French, and English, their performances are electrifying, provocative, and impossible to ignore.

With roots in Saint Petersburg, Shortparis shared stages with global icons like The Kooks and alt-J, while dazzling audiences across premier festivals—Haldern Pop, OFF, Pop-Kultur Berlin, and The Great Escape.

Shortparis is following in Sergey Kuryokhin’s legacy of provocative performance art; described by The Quietus as “ambitious, bombastic, erotic, and full of revolutionary potential,” Shortparis melds electronic, dark wave, post-industrial, and avant-garde sounds into a captivating, genre-defying spectacle.
