about

When I first met Vlad and Dmitri Shchukin of the Brighton Beach-based collective Soho Boys, I thought they were the biggest scenester poser snobs I’d ever encountered. What was supposed to be a sit-down interview at Tatiana Grill with the brothers and the third and perhaps most crucial member of the outfit, Salvador Carvalho—who they discovered busking in a Publix parking lot in Sarasota, Florida—turned into mayhem, with shattered glasses raining down on the restaurant’s patio. In a thick Brazilian accent, Carvalho rasped about his parents’ involvement in the Bossa Nova scenes of years past in Bahia while he chain-smoked cigarettes. Skulking as they downed far too much vodka, the Shchukin brothers began to tell me about their adolescent years sneaking out at night to sing karaoke at hookah bars in nearby Sheepshead Bay, before all hell broke loose.

Vlad screamed about a time he robbed Dmitri and then went to prison. Dmitri screamed back that he didn’t know until Vlad was out. They had reunited for a performance one night that involved fist fights and a kiss between the brothers, but neither of those acts were performative—the way they commanded a smoke-filled room with their voices and guitars was. Salvador’s throaty voice joined the din, claiming that his years studying creative writing at the Ringling College of Art and Design were the key to creating the beautiful compositions that make up Full English, their debut album.

On the opening track, “Not Funny,” Vlad sings, “People think it’s funny, but I’m not laughing,” so I asked him if the Bladee hoodie he was wearing in the video was a joke while glugging my glass of vodka, only then realizing how many rounds it had been. I felt a fist connect with my face, I heard my glass hit the floor, and I woke up with two black eyes. I turned on Full English and let the entirety run as I applied a cucumber face mask. It made perfect sense.
