The Moscow government's attempt to use live music to distract from recent street protests has led to fresh controversy.

Police officers detain a protestor during an unsanctioned rally in the center of Moscow, Russia in Aug. 3, 2019.

Last weekend, city authorities organized a last-minute rock festival called Shashlik Live in Gorky Park to coincide with an unauthorized political rally in support of independent candidates barred from running for the city's legislature. Similarly, Alexey Kortnev, the frontman of the band Neschastny Sluchai, who was tapped to be the festival's host, declined and expressed support for the barred candidates.

On Aug. 3, over 1,000 protesters were detained by police in central Moscow, while the festival in Gorky Park still carried on, featuring such rock acts as Chaif, Splean, 7B and Uma2rman.
