Natalia Yurievna Chumakova (Russian: Наталья Юрьевна Чумакова (Летова)) is a Russian musician and journalist best known for being the widow of Egor Letov.
History
She was born in 1969 in Kyrgyzstan.
She first met Egor Letov at the funeral of his first girlfriend Yanka Dyagileva in 1991, but didn't marry him until 1997, when she joined Grazhdanskaya Oborona as bassist. She provided vocals for the track "Zachem snyatsya sny?", a studio outtake included with the 2011 vinyl reissue of the 2002 album Zvezdopad.
After Letov died in 2008, Chumakova took over his GrOb Records label. She remastered two GrOb albums: Poganaya molodezh and Instruktsiya po vyzhivaniyu and two Kommunizm albums: Soldatsky son and Khronika pikiruyushchego bombardirovshchika in early 2011. All except for IPV were released on the Stanzmarke label on vinyl in 2011. IPV, after resolution of the copyright with Roman Neumoev, was released in 2013.
