Semmar not just interested in Metropolitan waterways. Members of the group have a lot in common with ponds.

The name of our group Semmar, that is, “without the sea”, was selected due to the internal sensations of water. Near the rivers, seas and oceans we rest spiritually and physically. Bassist Tom, for example, always trying to go swimming in all available water bodies, even when very cold. Of all the natural resources water is our element” – says the vocalist of group Andrey Shatrov.

Kiev was built in the area between the Raw and the Lybid river Pochayna. In ancient times the river was deep and rapid, according to him, there were hundreds of ships, their water was clean and healthy. Now Raw, Pochaina and Lybid trapped in the concrete, forgotten by citizens, and some even become places of ecological disaster.

Today, when there is a serious problem of water pollution, for us it’s a sore subject. People very often behave like pigs. Even regular cleanups activists along rivers and lakes do not always have a lasting effect. Everyone has long known that water is the most valuable resource that we’re already losing. We believe that the need to protect natural heritage and understand that nature will protect us only if we will defend it”, – said Andrey Shatrov.
