Artists SHAMAN and Grigory Leps Experience Traffic Jam on Crimean Bridge
Russian artists Grigory Leps and SHAMAN, both known for their popular music, recently experienced a traffic jam on the Crimean Bridge during their concert tours in the region.
The traffic jam, which lasted over four hours and affected more than 2,500 vehicles, occurred on August 7. Witnesses in the traffic jam recognized the artists and filmed them, later posting the videos on social media. The artists were traveling in buses when they joined the queue.
Despite the fatigue, both Grigory Leps and SHAMAN tried to keep their spirits up during the traffic jam. According to one post author, they were very tired, but they managed to amuse their fellow drivers with a comedic boxing match near their buses. The incident was said to have brought a smile to the faces of those stuck in the traffic.
In a message on his Telegram channel, Grigory Leps expressed gratitude for the crowd and reception at his concert in Yalta. He also mentioned that they would return to Crimea in September. SHAMAN, on the other hand, is scheduled to perform on November 1, 2025, in the Great Hall of the Palace of the Republic, Minsk.
After their tours, both artists were heading to perform in different regions. Leps was headed to Anapa on August 11, while SHAMAN was bound for Sochi on the same day. Leps has another concert scheduled for August 13 in Gelendzhik.
It is worth noting that both Grigory Leps and SHAMAN have faced EU sanctions due to their public support for the Ukraine war, with Spotify removing their music from its platform over these issues. However, this has not deterred their fans, as their concerts continue to attract large audiences.
