This weekend, the pop powerhouse brings his voice to New York City for an exclusive orchestral performance at Brooklyn Steel on September 14. Part of his first North American tour, the show promises a unique mix of cinematic arrangements and deeply personal storytelling.
Raised in the small Kharkiv-region city of Volchansk, which was occupied on the first day of Russia’s full-scale invasion, Pivovarov endured profound personal loss—his childhood home destroyed, and his mother and grandmother living under nearly a year of occupation. Yet from the devastation came an unwavering purpose. “Volchansk is gone, but it lives in me — in every word, every note,” he says. “I create not just for myself, but for every Ukrainian whose story needs to be heard.”
Pivovarov has performed over 500 concerts worldwide, amassed 2.6 million Instagram followers, and garnered 1.2 billion YouTube views. He recently delivered a message of resistance to over 20 million viewers during the Usyk vs. Tyson Fury boxing match in Saudi Arabia. His performances for civilians and soldiers in front-line and liberated areas of Ukraine have cemented his status as a cultural voice for his nation.
The North American tour also includes stops in Miami, Toronto, Chicago, Edmonton, Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, with several shows already sold out.
For New Yorkers, the Brooklyn Steel show is a rare chance to experience Pivovarov’s music with orchestral grandeur—a performance that promises to be both moving and unforgettable.
