Singer, composer, arranger and songwriter Eduard Izmestyev became famous under a completely different creative pseudonym. The debut musical works of the performer were first heard on the Chanson radio. No one stood behind Edward. Popularity and success is his own merit.
Childhood and youth
He was born in the Perm region, but spent his childhood in the small provincial town of Kizel. Edward has the warmest memories of his childhood.
From early childhood, he was imbued with a sincere love for music. Eduard devoted a lot of time to playing percussion instruments, and soon joined the gypsy camp, which was located not far from the Izmestievs' house. Gypsy blood does not flow in his veins. Edward went crazy with the entertainment of these people - he was attracted by the sound of the guitar, their wonderful singing and crazy dancing.
In the mid-80s, at the insistence of the head of the family, he entered the local technical school. Of course, that classes in an educational institution did not bring him pleasure. He was on fire with music and the stage.
Soon he "put together" his first group. The brainchild of Edward was named "Atlantis". The team was content with performing at local discos. After receiving a diploma, the young man, like the rest of the Atlantis participants, went to work in a mine. The guys did not give up music lessons.
The creative path of the singer Eduard Izmestiev
In his first team, Eduard independently wrote music, poetry, and also arranged. The group is rich in as many as 11 longplays. The band's musical compositions have repeatedly been included in the rotation of popular radio stations. At the end of the 90s, the ideological inspirer moved to the capital of Russia. He had to disband his offspring.
He received a lucrative offer from Soyuz-production. He was invited to the position of arranger. Then he was lucky to meet the stars of Russian show business. Soon he presented the solo project "Andrey Bandera".
At the beginning of the 2004s, the presentation of Bandera's solo composition "By Stage" took place. The track did not catch the hearts of music lovers. The works that he wrote before XNUMX did not bring him due success. The situation changed with the release of the track "Ivushki". The song got into the rotation of the radio station "Chanson".
On the wave of popularity, Bandera presents several more successful works. We are talking about the compositions "Maple" and "Rus". The singer's tracks are regularly heard on Russian and Ukrainian radio stations. Fans found information about the singer on his website. He was so imbued with respect for his "fans" that he decided to take a piece of their work and place it in his own compositions. Everyone who wished to leave a wish regarding how they see the further work of the performer. Some left ready-made songs on the site.
Cooperation with the "fans" resulted in the recording of folk tracks: "Stranger", "Metelitsa", "Sheremetyevo" and "Beloved". For some of the compositions, the singer also presented video clips.
In 2006, he finally decided to appear before the public. Bandera performed at the Olimpiysky site. He took part in the music festival "Oh, Razgulyay!". At the end of the year, he held concerts in some Russian cities.
Debut album presentation
A year later, the presentation of the singer's full-length album took place. Longplay "Because I love" was warmly received not only by fans, but also by music critics. The top compositions of the disc were the tracks "Doves" and "The Most Desirable".
In support of the debut LP, he held a concert tour across the territory of the Russian Federation. Soon he went to conquer European music lovers as well. The singer was especially warmly received by the Spanish public. During this period of time, the peak of Bandera's popularity falls. In 2009, Andrei and Rada Rai presented the joint program "It's Impossible Not to Love". The musicians performed in the Kremlin.
Bandera's musical works "Beloved", "Fields of Russia", "Stranger" and "Metelitsa" are another result of the celebrity's Internet collaboration with authors and the crown of folk production.
Soon the presentation of the second studio album took place. Longplay "It's Impossible Not to Love" was warmly received by fans. This is one of Bandera's best-selling collections of discography.
In 2011, the artist's discography was replenished with the third album. The record was called "Touch". The most striking track of the LP is considered to be the composition "Hooked".
Change of creative nickname
Three years later, the contract with the Soyuz-production company expired. The singer decided not to continue working with the label. Due to the events in Ukraine, the singer abandoned the creative pseudonym. Since 2014, he has been performing under his real name - Eduard Izmestiev.
An artist's dream come true. He admitted that he had long wanted to perform under his own, and not a stage name. Of course, he had some concerns that fans would not perceive him under the new initials. The singer's fears were completely unfounded. He continued to collect full halls of spectators, and the albums sold well. He managed to maintain a normal relationship with his audience.
In 2016, he presented the ballad "Lost Happiness". In addition, the premiere of the video clip for the 2014 track “Nochka” took place. Then he appeared in a number of television programs. The appearance on rating projects allowed him to increase the number of fans.
A year later, the singer's discography became richer by one more album. The new disc was called "To want to live ...". Recall that this is the second longplay, which was released under the artist's own name. The first was the album "Enchanted Heart". Its presentation took place in 2014.
