On stage: festivals, tours and friends of PATSYKI Z FRANEKA
About the artist: PATSYKI Z FRANEKA
The band's first stage was the Hit-Conveyor contest in 2016. The members call themselves amateurs back then, yet they had thought through the concept of the number, with a tambourine and a sopilka in it. Chornyi appears in a cat mask that a designer friend made from wire, felt and sequins, with a second mask underneath. In Lviv he once carried a microphone stand onto the stage instead of a saxophone, and the audience decided it was planned. Nazar leads the band on stage and in daily matters, and Lola and Chornyi acknowledge it. The group also works with a DJ and a sound engineer.
The halls know the repertoire. In Lviv, Nazar Khudyn said in 2018, people sang even the lesser-known songs and whole verses. At the Respublika festival in Kamianets-Podilskyi a storm wrecked the stage, and the organizers told the band that about sixty fans were waiting in the rain, so the group played for an hour. At a festival in Canada the members estimate about ten thousand people. In Toronto fans asked for Bez fotoshopa, a song the band had never played live, and the group performed it there for the first time. A fan in Bukovel told them he started going to the gym because of their songs. Lola reads the comments on YouTube, and Nazar likes to talk critics round. The members say they half enjoy criticism because it keeps people engaged.

On 26 May 2022 the band played on a square in Den Bosch in the Netherlands, at De Parade, alongside Khrystyna Soloviy and Vopli Vidopliassova. About five hundred Ukrainians and several hundred locals came. Nazar practiced the pronunciation of the city name beforehand and thanked the Netherlands from the stage. On 20 August 2022 the band played a free hour from 14:30 on an open-air stage in the courtyard of Germany's Federal Foreign Office in Berlin during the federal government's open day. The European Commission Representation in Germany organized it. The B90 club in Gdansk writes that the band has a wide following in Poland.
The band records with other artists. Ty moya carries the name of ILLYA LETAY. Serce has a remix by Ipunkz and Lola. Ipunkz plays with the band as its DJ. Nazar names Artem Pyvovarov, LAUD, ADAM, KRUT and Serhiy Tanchynets among his friends in the scene. In 2021 the band took part in the appearance of the Ukrainian national football team at UEFA EURO 2020 with the single ZhovtoSyni, and festival descriptions call it the team's music ambassador.
The official YouTube channel carries a recording called Live in Kyiv 2023. Nazar says the band prefers live contact with fans to social networks.
