“Friends, unfortunately, Yura Shatunov’s concert has been canceled for technical reasons. If I can do it at the cultural center, I will notify you. It’s a shame. Sorry,” Karmysheva wrote.

Singer Yuri Shatunov died in June last year. He was 48 years old. Shortly before his death, the artist complained of chest pain.
