About the release

Once is Yarveya’s first album, released on 29 June 2026. Its seven songs introduce Yar and Veya through the project’s central device: a male baritone and a mature female voice can occupy the same story, answer one another or move in different directions. Instead of a formal biography, the listener immediately encounters a relationship between two characters and more than one account of an event.

The first four tracks establish that dialogue. Однажды, Ничего не искал, Не удерживать and Следы place both voices inside a shared dramatic setting without forcing them towards the same conclusion. The album then changes distance: Ещё утро не скоро belongs to Veya, Нам другого не суждено to Yar, and the closing Мне грустно на тебя смотреть brings them together again.

The title refers to an ordinary day whose importance becomes clear only later. A meeting, a decision to leave, an attempt not to hold someone back, a road, traces left behind or a conversation before dawn — each song fixes a moment after which familiar life looks different.

The album established Yarveya’s core subjects: memory, relationships, time, decisions and change. Electronic and pop production, folk inflection and live details serve those stories, while the two voices leave room for conflicting human experience rather than one settled answer.
