In distant and sultry Jamaica, the musical style of reggae has formed. Circumstances developed in such a way that young musicians in the vastness of the Soviet Union were delighted and fell in love with this genre with all their hearts. And Andrey Zaporozhets got carried away by these rhythms.
Children's hobbies
When maxims about a happy Soviet childhood appear in the information field, one must understand that this is basically true. Andrey Alexandrovich Zaporozhets was born on September 5, 1979 in an intelligent Soviet family. My father worked as a surgeon in one of the hospitals. Mother taught Russian literature at the university. The boy began to demonstrate his musical abilities early.
At school, Andrei studied well. He was fond of sports. In a company with classmates, I went to classes in the taekwondo section. In parallel, he attended music lessons at the Lyceum of Arts. He sang in the children's choir. Craving for creativity has done its job. When Zaporozhets faced a dilemma, sport or music, he quite consciously made his choice in favor of a musical career. In reality, I had to make several deviations from the direct path to the goal.
Creative routes
After school, under the influence of his parents, Zaporozhets decided to get a medical education. Student years have passed with great benefit. Andrey wrote lyrics and music. Together with his friend and great musician Sergei Babkin, he created a rock group. Already the first album, titled "Anplagget", attracted the attention of the target audience with its original sound and powerful energy. In their approaches and solutions, young musicians were guided by the tastes and preferences of their peers.
The musical composition "Soldier" made the group famous. The guys have released a few more discs. For two years they successfully toured various territories of the former USSR. In order to expand the repertoire and in search of new forms of sound, Babkin and Zaporozhets decided to temporarily leave. The first decided to build a solo career. The second created a new team "SunSay". Acting as the leader of the group, Andrey demonstrated his vocal abilities and arranger abilities. The albums, which were recorded on a regular basis, enjoyed steady demand.
Personal life
It is interesting to note that from adolescence Andrei has been fascinated by the philosophy of Zen Buddhism. This philosophical trend preaches the contemplative attitude of man to the surrounding reality. The vocalist and composer Zaporozhets has achieved a high level of fame among audiences and critics. He made his modest contribution to the development of youth culture. At the current moment in time, he lives at a measured pace, without haste and stress. Does not drink alcohol or eat meat.
The musician's personal life was successful. He married Nina, a member of the SunSay group. The husband and wife are raising and raising their daughter Sophia, who was born in 2008. The family regularly travels to different countries and continents. Andrey continues to write music and engage in concert activities.
