He drives cars and goods from UK to Ukraine to help the people of his home country, and on his return he performs sell-out concerts across Europe as benefit gigs!
Previously a footballer for Dynamo Kyiv, however injury stopped one incredible career & started another.
THIS ALBUM IS CALLED LOVE GROHOTSKY FOR A REASON. At every gig Grohotsky receives so much love from his devoted audience. Whether it's in a club or a gig, he inspires like the pop star he is. And he's equally at home in international opera houses with orchestras. He won The Voice, by singing both opera and pop and in my view, looking like Elvis sort of helps! - Latest Bill
LOVE GROHOTSKY
1: BE WITH ME
“This album kicks off with the English version of his huge Ukrainian hit. A story of love and loyalty where new dictator Killjoy has taken over Joyland and forced the beautiful rebel outlaw band into the forests chased by cruel enemies. Be with the rebels!”
2: DANCE LIKE LOVERS (NIGHT)
“The Rosti Raien written club classic follows. The storm has hit the city but under the neon covers and colours, the lovebirds in the city get closer and closer. Impossible not to dance to, impossible not to dance like lovers. The most beautiful Night ever.”
3: MY ALL
“So is it possible for anyone to cover Mariah? It would be like covering Back To Black. And for a man to give his all without sounding weak or freak! Grohotsky goes from ant to giant in this cinematic ultra- passionate masterpiece!”
4: LETTING YOU GO FEATURING VIKTORIJA FAITH
“'Listen, honey, I saw you holding her hand' and so follows a modern pop duet with Lithuanian pop angel Viktorija Faith. Modern but great melody recalling classic pop duets Elton & Kiki Dee, Dolly and Kenny, Ed Sheeran and Beyonce. Sad love always sounds good with voices that good! Here's one more such song and two great voices.”
5: CHERVONA RUTA
“The unofficial national anthem sung by the official winner of The Voice. Usually sung by thousands at Grohotsky’s gigs across Europe. Enhanced by multi- instrumentalist Nick Pynn.”
6: HAPPY DAY
“Despite everything, you've got to be happy! And it's impossible not to at this gig! So come on down to where the starlings gather & the seagulls screech on Brighton aka Inspiration Beach. Under Brighton Palace Pier. Heh you could meet Grohotsky and all the gang there. See you this summer!”
7: US TWO
“My God, what a dream I had. The two of us making love like the first couple on earth, and we were beautiful. Based on Nina Cassian’s poem of survival against genocide, a gorgeous moving melody with sumptuous solo from Julian “Insides” Tardo. Swoon and get your mobiles ready to light up the arena!”
8: IN YOUR DREAMS
“'My happiness there, in your dreams.' Grohotsky makes you believe it's your dreams. His voice soars like no other on these beautiful lyrics by rapper/writer Eminemmylou. Grohotsky gives passionate commitment to finding that special someone.”
9: SWEET DESIRE
“Thousands love him. But he wants you. “I saw you there come out of the water.” Timeless times, age old rhymes... dreaming you get me like no one does with just the one look. Sweet desire!”
10: LIES
“Heavy political metal & mixed by Maverick! Grohotsky knows... we're not nihilist Nietzscheans! You're offering me something! Lies! Terrible Lies!!! But we won't go back to zero without a fight. We hear you!”
11: MOONLIGHT
“Zhivago-like cinematic soundscape and with the wonderful Zhayvir Bandura Trio, Grohotsky could be at Kyiv Opera House with this beautiful classic song.”
12: YOU WILL REMEMBER ME
“'The sea is the Black Sea and in it you see me.' wrote poet, Yevgeny Yevtushenko. It was a pleasure of a lifetime to meet this Ukrainian artist and to create a song for another Ukrainian artist Grohotsky. Lovely flute from Polina Loubnina.”
Thank you to all the wonderful musicians who played on this album with us, especially The Zhayvir Bandura Trio, Polina Loubnina, Andrea Barker, Ray Shell, Nick Pynn, Viktorija Faith, David Cash, Jonathan Torok and Nick Vivych.
