They played various types of music, but it was mostly based on Belarusian Folklore , though often with various Rock elements. It was one of the very few (and possibly the first) Soviet bands to tour in America in 1976 . They've toured the South of the USA together with a folk band New Christy Minstrels . 1974 - 1980 is considered the Golden Age era of the band when it achieved top popularity in USSR, in their home in Belarus and in some other countries. Throughout several decades many singers and musicians have been playing in "Pesniary," but the leader always remained unchanged: Vladimir Muliavin . After his tragic death in January 26, 2003 (not being able to recover from a serious car accident) four different bands laid claims to be the official descendants of the original "Pesniary" band. "Pesniary" were the best-known band in Belarus during Soviet times. DISCOGRAPHY There are also dozens of singles. EXTERNAL LINKS
