MUSIC CALENDAR August 30, 2015 - my acquaintance with Ildar South

I have long wanted to tell the singer – so there was no reason. It is not in my guidebook, and the date on eyes did not come across, and today – to write about com - some skank's nothing like…

At the end of summer 2015 (well, let it be the 30th of August) we celebrated sobriety day with friends in the nearest beer cellar. Good beer, excellent snack (now a lot of things are produced for beer-the quality and range is growing!,- from dried octopuses to smoked pig ears).

There I heard for the first time Ildar South – soulful songs with no claims to spirituality and culture, but close and understandable and catchy tune. Voice – classical buharik, but the more captivating.

Ildar was born in Moscow in 1960, school ensemble, factory, army, taxi driver. He writes his own songs, sometimes-in collaboration. Being a fan of Arkady North, took a stage name-South. And that-sounds!

He started recording his songs, got the band together and started performing. Recorded several albums, unequal-but in its own way interesting. Now he is one of the new stars of Russian chanson for me, I like his songs.
