Picnic (Russian: Пикник), also transliterated as Piknik, is a Russian rock band formed in 1978 in Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg). Known for their blend of art, progressive, gothic, and Russian rock, they are considered a cult phenomenon in Russian music. The group's defining era began in 1981, with the arrival of frontman, guitarist, and primary songwriter Edmund Shklyarskiy. Picnic is highly regarded for their elaborate, theatrical live performances, which often feature custom-built and unconventional instruments. The band has faced significant tragedies in recent years. In March 2018, several members were severely injured in a tour bus crash near Gus-Khrustalny. On 22 March 2024, they were scheduled to perform at Crocus City Hall in Krasnogorsk, when a terrorist attack occurred, resulting in the death of the band's administrator, Ekaterina Kushner.
