About Nemra

Nemra is an Armenian rock band established in 2012 in Yerevan. Led by the main songwriter Van Yeghiazaryan on vocals and guitar, Vaspur Yeghiazaryan on bass (songwriter), keyboardist Marianna Karakeyan (songwriter), and drummer Marek Zaborski. The band’s music draws from the alternative and indie rock genres, and they also put a unique spin on traditional Armenian folk songs. In 2018, the band won “Best rock band of the year” at the Armenian Music Awards. The band’s name, Nemra, is a play on the word Armen (Armenian), referencing the band’s love of looking at things from different perspectives. They have released two studio albums in English “Mubla” and “Hmm” and multiple singles and music videos. One of the singles “Nare” has amassed over 9 million views on YouTube. In 2018, they competed in the Armenian national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest and narrowly missed out on first place in the contest, landing a strong second position. Nemra has received support from notable musicians, inter alia, Serj Tankian (SOAD) who shared Nemra’s “She’s beautiful” and “Daisy” songs on his Facebook page, calling Nemra “A cool band”, Brian May (The Queen). In 2022, the band performed at the Starmus festival, sharing the stage with legendary guitarist, Brian May, who gifted the band leader Van his six-pence guitar pick as a good luck charm for the band’s career. Nemra’s live performances are known to be unbelievably energetic and vibrant. During their concerts, the synergy between the band and the audience is incredible: the fans get vividly engaged in an unending sing-along with the band.
