Sergey Nagovitsyn is a Russian singer, author and performer of his own songs in the style of chanson and urban romance, who died at the age of 31. But still his songs are included in the golden collections of Russian chanson.
Biography
Sergei was born in Perm in the summer of 1968 in a family of ordinary factory workers, honest workers who never had problems with the law. But the “thug romance" surrounding the boys of the streets of the industrial town left its imprint on the fate of Nagovitsyn and determined the future style of his work.
After work, his father was engaged in his hobby - basketball, coaching his son and neighboring children. Sport was the first serious occupation of the future singer, he even received the title of CCM in boxing.
After leaving school, Sergei Nagovitsyn entered the Perm Medical Institute, deciding to connect his life with medicine, but he did not finish his education - in 1986 he was drafted into the army. It was there that he mastered the guitar and was seriously carried away by the work of Tsoi, and then he began to write his own songs and performed them for his colleagues.
Career
After the army, Sergey got a job at a gas company and met the guys there, who later became his collaborators in music. Together they created an amateur group and even recorded the album "Full Moon". Sergei Nagovitsyn planned to write rock music, but was more interested in urban romance.
In 1992, a Russian production company offered the collective a contract, but to fulfill its conditions it was necessary to move to Moscow, and cooperation was short-lived - the singer remained in Perm. The 94th was marked by the appearance of the new collection “City Meetings”, and two years later the famous “Dori-Dori” chanson lovers were released, after which the singer gained all-Russian popularity.
Sergey’s songs began to appear regularly on thematic radio stations, occupying high places in the charts. During this period, the singer tried to settle in the capital, but abandoned this venture and returned home. In addition to the songs released in the albums, Sergey recorded a lot of material for future collections, and after his death, relatives were able to publish three more albums, and in 2009 a biographical film based on Nagovitsyn’s songs “Broken Fate” was released.
