The Newcranes

The Newcranes was a group of young musicians playing up-tempo mandolin-oriented Ukrainian-influenced folk punk music, who were based in the East Midlands of the United Kingdom in the early 1990s. They formed part of Derby's energetic folk punk scene.[1]

The group split at the end of the 1990s. Lead singer Wolly Dyszkant emigrated to Melbourne, Australia, and currently records under the name DyMyR, an adaptation of his full Ukrainian first name Wolodymyr.[2]
