Russia’s best-known rock band, Mumiy Troll, is touring the US and Canada. Simultaneously, MT will drop their second LP in English, ‘Malibu Alibi.’ The album is available through digital outlets across North and South America.

The LP was penned during the band’s global voyage upon the Russian sailing ship Sedov. It was then recorded in Los Angeles and Moscow––not to mention a range of locations in China, Japan, and South Africa.
The nine English tracks were guided by an international team of musicians and producers, recruited by frontman Ilya Lagutenko around the world. They include Keith Ciancia, T-Bone Burnett’s prime collaborator on the Coen Brothers’ feature ’The Ladykillers’ and the HBO series ’True Detective.’ Also on board is the Vladivostok keyboard wizard DZA, found by chance in a Hong Kong café.
The US dates begin March 2 in Chicago, kickstarting a series of concerts in eight cities. Mumiy Troll will be showcasing two albums: the English ‘Malibu Alibi’ and the Russian ‘Pirate Copies.’ The band recently completed a successful tour around sixteen European cities in Fall 2015. The two new albums were presented in England, Ireland, Germany, Switzerland, Czech Republic, and Baltic nations.
The US March tour will end in Texas at South by Southwest, where Mumiy Troll will unveil a showcase for the Vladivostok festival V-ROX (http://www.vrox.org)
The band members call themselves “Far Eastern, evergreen romantics.” Mumiy Troll was founded in Vladivostok (Russia’s biggest Pacific port) by frontman Ilya Lagutenko.
Since then, these musicians have played gigs worldwide: from Siberia to the Baltics, Mongolia to Greenland — and from Shanghai clubs to Saint Petersburg’s Palace Square. Despite international renown, they remain fresh and very keen to experiment — further still from home.
A genuine disregard for canonical rock quickly made them the coolest, biggest band in Russia. A chain of Number One singles, media awards, and sold-out arena tours followed.
Starting with the release of their debut and DIY album in 1997, Mumiy Troll rapidly became one of Russia’s most prominent bands; online they have managed more than 100 million downloads. “MT” were the first group to appear on MTV Russia, to represent Russia at Eurovision, and win every domestic award possible. All the same, the ensemble remains committed to the DIY philosophy of their roots.
