Ephyra Unplugged has been a project the band dreamed of doing for several years. Last year, Ephyra was in the process of organizing an Unplugged show with the help of priest, friend, and fan, Fr. Pavlo Hayda. Fr. Pavlo helped the band out in many ways and supported Ephyra in all its endevours. On September 4, 2007, Fr. Pavlo tragically passed away in an accident at the age of 42. In honor of his memory Ephyra, with the help of the Hayda family, organized "Ephyra Unplugged.....in memory of Fr. Pavlo Hayda". This was an event for people to come together, remember his memory and to enjoy Ephyra's music acoustically. Also, this was a benefit for the Hayda Education Fund, a fund to support the educational costs of Fr. Pavlo's 4 children. Ephyra Unplugged took place on November 3rd, 2007 at St. Joseph Hall in Chicago. It was a memorable event with people coming together to enjoy music and remembering a man who touched many lives.
