The Shono Hunters Throat singing from the shores of Baikal by Shono band is a unique and captivating album that showcases the group's impressive vocal abilities. The album features traditional Tuvan throat singing, a style of singing that involves producing multiple pitches simultaneously through specialized techniques.
The album takes listeners on a journey through the vast landscapes of Siberia, with haunting melodies and rhythmic beats that evoke the region's natural beauty and cultural richness. The band's skillful use of throat singing creates a hypnotic and otherworldly sound that is both mesmerizing and awe-inspiring.
The album features a range of traditional Tuvan instruments, including the igil (a two-stringed fiddle) and the doshpuluur (a long-necked lute). These instruments add depth and texture to the music and provide a beautiful accompaniment to the vocal performances.

Notes
SHONO was founded in 2014 by Alexander Arhincheev. Alexander professionally performes Buryat legends and epics (uliger), masters several throat singing styles and skillfully plays the Buryat and Mongolian traditional instruments.
The spirit of the ancient rituals of Eurasian grasslands pervades the whole album, creating a unique atmosphere. Easily and naturally the musicians capture the attention of the listener throughout the album. Appropriately balanced against the background of traditional melodic heritage, rock-roll drive and rhythm put the group on a par with the best groups of the contemporary Siberian and Mongolian ethno-rock, such as Yat Kha, Namgar, Altan Urag etc.
SHONO’s new album, «Hunters» is a real gift for all fans of throat singing. Such styles as Khoomei and Eskheree (sygyt) can be heard in most songs, at times featuring simultaneous throatsinging by several members of the group.
the Shono Hunters Throat singing from the shores of Baikal by Shono band is a must-listen for anyone interested in traditional Tuvan music or world music in general. The album is a testament to the band's skill and dedication to preserving this unique and ancient art form, and it is sure to leave a lasting impression on listeners.
