Today, live from the Channel One studio in the heart of Red Square, Roman Miroshnichenko and Dmitry Lanskoy breathed new life into the legendary "Eastern Song" (composed by David Tukhmanov, lyrics by Onegin Gadzhikasimov), presenting a brilliant remake to viewers. Remarkably, each musician performed dual roles, demonstrating virtuoso skill. Artur Gazarov, behind his unique drum set, skillfully combined the parts of drummer and percussionist. Mikhail Kiselev, using a digital accordion, skillfully intertwined bass guitar and keyboards, enriching the musical palette. Roman Miroshnichenko, with filigree precision, extracted sounds from an acoustic guitar on an upright stand, and transformed while soloing on his new electric guitar. This artistic symbiosis of instrumental parts was a true musical revelation.

This year's 68th Grammy® longlist includes the single "Snowlight", produced by Roman Miroshnichenko, whose arrangement he also embellished with melodies and riffs on acoustic, electric, and synthesizer guitars. The track is nominated in the Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance categories. Also nominated for Best Contemporary Blues Album is Ecuadorian bluesman Antonio Vergara's album "Vergara Street", which Roman Miroshnichenko contributed. Currently, the album "Vergara Street" occupies the 2nd place on the Amazon's blues chart.
"If we're talking about the pop categories, the single 'Snowlight' will probably have a hard time achieving results there. But I think Ecuadorian bluesman Vergara's album 'Vergara Street' has a good chance of being nominated, as his two previous albums have already been nominated," comments Roman Miroshnichenko.
