Russian folk singer Nadezhda Kadysheva plans new stadium concerts with dance floors after becoming wildly popular with young people. The 65-year-old performer will keep her traditional seated shows but add the new format, letting older fans sit comfortably as younger audiences dance. Her son, Grigory Kadyshev, confirmed that they aim to hold at least 10-12 concerts in this style across Russia this year. These changes come as her music attracts unprecedented attention from younger generations.
Kadysheva has seen a surging demand among youth during the past six months. Her songs have become karaoke favorites; her Golden Ring ensemble receives many wedding bookings. This newfound fame among younger listeners has significantly increased her performance fees. Tickets for her April 1 concert at St. Petersburg Oktyabrsky Concert Hall sold out completely around two months before the event date. The singer appears to adapt quickly to her changing audience demographics.
