Biography of soloist Burito
Igor Burnyshev was born in early June 1977 in the capital of Udmurtia - the city of Izhevsk. Despite the fact that the boy’s family was far from art — his mother was an installer, his father was a milling machine operator — his artistic abilities showed up from early childhood. Igor loved to sing, with pleasure participated in theatrical school productions. In addition, the boy was fond of sports - he attended rock climbing and tourism clubs, traveled to the Altai as part of a school group, when he became independent, he visited the Tien Shan more than once.
