“Druha Rika”: A Special Story Beyond the Stage
Concert, event, corporate, and mass-event security is not just a technical task. It is about trust. Stability. Peace of mind — the environment where real emotions are born. The story of TopGuard is a story of safety for the country’s brightest events. But one story is especially meaningful — Druha Rika.
Druha Rika: music that changes people
The Ukrainian rock band Druha Rika was founded in 1996 in Zhytomyr. It all began with a sincere passion for British-wave music — bands such as Radiohead and Depeche Mode influenced their early sound. Very soon, however, the band developed its own distinctive identity — emotional, deep, and honest.
The first major success came in 2003 with the album “Dva” and the hit “Tak Malo Tut Tebe”. This was followed by the albums:
- “Ya Ye” (2000)
- “Rekordy” (2005)
- “Moda” (2008)
- “Metanoia” (2012)
- “Piramida” (2017)
- “Supernation” (2021)
Their journey is one of constant growth, exploration, and an open dialogue with listeners.
Valerii Kharchyshyn is the voice of a generation that is not afraid to speak about what truly matters.
Together with TopGuard — from the first stages to stadiums
The cooperation between TopGuard and Druha Rika began back when both teams were just building their names. Since then, we have gone through many landmark and historic events in the life of the country together. We witnessed the band become a living legend.
We still keep autographed photos from three different periods:
- The beginning
- The first nationwide breakthrough
- The modern stage — musical maturity and depth
And each photo is more than just a memory — it is gratitude for years of trust and genuine friendship.
Our scale: from Deep Purple to Eurovision
We are proud that TopGuard has provided security for Ukraine’s key events, including:
- UEFA Euro 2012
- UEFA Champions League Final
- Eurovision Song Contest
- Concerts by world legends: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Depeche Mode, Deep Purple, Anastacia, Scorpions, and many others
Each of these projects involved our systems, teams, response plans, mobile units, experience, and resilience.
Yet despite the big names, there are artists with whom we share something special — not just professional cooperation, but a human connection. Druha Rika is exactly that. It is part of our history.
Druha Rika + TopGuard is about depth, rock’n’roll, and trust. It is not just a list of artists — it is a life lived together, with music, risk, energy, and confidence behind us.
Thank you for the journey we have taken together. We move forward!
