About
Ivan Horobets is a young singer-songwriter who sings and plays both guitar and piano. At UAFest 2026 he takes the Main Stage at 16:10 with a two-part set: first the Ukrainian folk song «Біля тополі» ("By the Poplar") on his guitar, then his own song "See Them Again" at the piano.
"See Them Again" is the first song he wrote. In his words, it is "about close people that I miss a lot and how much I would love to enjoy those good old days that we shared together". The song took him to the finals of Secondaire en spectacle.
“This song is about close people that I miss a lot.”
