In Ukraine, rock star Slava Vakarchuk has been described as a musician with the pop culture status of Bruce Springsteen, mixed with the political activism of Bono. Oh, and not for nothing, Vakarchuk also has a doctorate in theoretical physics. His band, Okean Elzy, begins a North American tour on Thursday. When The World spoke with Vakarchuk this winter, he told us that he had already begun singing and acting as a toddler.
