* "Niennah" (Natalia Vassilieva). Renowned in the post-Soviet Tolkien fandom as a minstrel, though most well known as the author of the ''Black Book Of Arda'', a big ''[[Silmarillion]]'' fanfic [[Perspective Flip|from Melkor's POV]] that was formally published as a book (yes, Russian copyright law is quite lax). At very least, have pulled a lot of people into discussion. |

* "Allkorr" (Svetlana Nikiforova). Many history and/or war themed songs, among the others. Throws in [[Rashomon Style]] "sequels"/"answers", if available (most known songs she perform are ''Raid'' that has at least 6 follow-ups and ''[[Schizo-Tech|Krupp]]'s [[Gatling Good|response]] to [[Knights of the Old Republic|Revan and Malak]]'' - another author's answer in the discussion of her song "I am Revan!"). Also wrote fanfics to [[J. R. R. Tolkien]]'s books and ''[[Star Wars]]'' among the other things. |

* Yevgeny Lukin. Though he has songs like e.g. a parody of [[White Sun of the Desert|Easterns]], most are around history/politics/philosophy (don't those end up tangled anyway?) both to famous tunes in parody/reference and his own. Well known in fan circles, but much more known as a SF&F author (over two dozens of various awards), and much less as a translator (at least two of [[Barbara Hambly]]'s books published on Russian). |

* In the fandom there are, of course, minstrels with pseudonyms from [[J. R. R. Tolkien]]'s books and occasionally [[The Witcher]] Saga, and even a few groups with such names as "Voluntary Orchestra of [[The Moomins|the Hemulen]]", "[[The Dark Elf Trilogy|Bregan D'aerthe]]" or "[[Dragonlance|Kendermore]]". |
