ANDREY MAKAREVICH (Rus/Venäjä)

Helsinki, The Circus 1. lokakuuta

Ensimmäistä kertaa Suomessa!
[??????? ???????!]

It is no exaggeration to call Andrey Makarevich a national legend. Makarevich is a front figure and guru for Russian rock music at large. He is the founding member and leader of Russia's oldest band Mashina Vremeni (“Time Machine”, since 1969!).
MV was the first band in the Soviet Union who started to sing rock in Russian and made the style popular. Their song “Povorot” (”The Turn”) topped the first ever official Soviet chart in 1979, while in 1984-1985 another hit by Makarevich “Muzyka Pod Snegom” (“Music Under The Snow”) topped the chart for 17 months. In perestroika times, when the band was finally allowed to issue LPs, they sold 18 000 000 copies of each album. At the same time, Mashina Vremeni started the first independent musical label in Russia, Sintez Records. Along playing with Mashina Vremeni, Makarevich also released eight solo albums, started several solo projects and hosted regular TV shows on the national television. He authored several poetry collections. Moreover, Makarevich was invited to record with ex-USSR president Mikhail Gorbachev on his solo album in 2009.

In 2014, Andrey Makarevich became one of the frontfigures of the anti-war stance in Russia. He openly condemned Russian occupation of Crimea and gave a concert in the part of Donbass region controlled by Ukraine, for the benefit of internally displaced children. Makarevich’s independent position on the Russian-Ukrainian conflict caused him a lot of trouble. A state-controlled TV channel publically condemned the artist as a ”traitor”. His concerts in Russia, outside Moscow, were canceled by the authorities.

Today, Andrey Makarevich is famous for his humanistic standpoint, as much as for brilliant songs and lyrics. He continues working and touring with Mashina Vremeni and his solo projects all over the world. For the first time in his 45-year career, Andrey Makarevich will perform in Sweden.
His program “Your 5” is largely based on Mashina Vremeni’s and his own songs that every Russian speaker knows by heart, as well as several jazz standards. Makarevich performs together with his famous countrymen Evgeny Borets (piano), Sergey Hootas (bass), David Tkebuchava (drums) and Timur Nekrasov (brass).

The one and only show in Finland will take place at The Circus in Helsinki. Come and hear the legendary voice of Russian rock!
