Childhood and youth
The versatile talents of this man are truly admirable. Maxim Sergeevich Pokrovsky writes lyrics and puts them on his own music. Then he himself performs. The musical compositions he created are heard on television, on the radio, and in movies. The tunes are easy to remember, which is why listeners like them. The future maestro was born on June 17, 1968 in an ordinary Soviet family. Parents lived in Moscow. My father worked as a sports journalist. Mother taught literature and Russian at a pedagogical university. When the boy was seven years old, the head of the family left home for another woman.
Maxim from an early age demonstrated creative abilities. He learned to read early and easily remembered melodies sounding from the TV screen. In school years, he was actively engaged in an aircraft modeling circle. It was during these classes that he showed interest in airplanes and aviation in general. It is not surprising that Pokrovsky dreamed of becoming a pilot. However, an obstacle arose that could not be overcome. The young man was "rejected" by the medical commission. Despite this, Maxim entered the Faculty of Informatics and Control Systems at the Moscow Aviation Institute.
On the creative wave
Pokrovsky received a technical education, but he did not work a day in his specialty. In his student years, as often happens with creative personalities, Max became interested in musical creativity. Already in his third year, he and his comrade organized a vocal and instrumental group, which was called "I brought my foot down!". The guys did not set ambitious goals, but they wanted to achieve popularity and recognition. As part of the accepted concept, they began to perform comic songs and compositions in foreign languages.
Max even had to come up with a new language, not known to science, in which he wrote his cult song "Har Mamburu." To the surprise and even dissatisfaction of classical critics, a pop-rock group in a short period of time gained unprecedented popularity among a youth audience. However, not all the peaks in show business were able to conquer. Pokrovsky set his partners a couple of times to break into Eurovision. It didn’t work out. Did not work out. The musicians did not experience much grief. They continued to create masterpieces. Record albums and tour countries and continents.
