Not every talented person is capable of leaving the construction site to make music. Vladimir Begunov committed such an act and his calculation turned out to be accurate. Today he is known as a member of the rock band "Chayf".
Childhood and youth
The Urals on a map of Russia occupies a worthy place. This region has long been known as the country's metallurgical and engineering center. Here, not only metallurgists demonstrate their abilities, but also those people who are engaged in creativity. Vladimir Sergeevich Begunov has absolute pitch and excellent memory. He came to Sverdlovsk when he was in tenth grade. By that time Volodya was already an experienced musician. Here, on a school bench, the Runners met and made friends with his friend and associate Vladimir Shakhrin in a short time.
The future rock musician was born on March 25, 1959 in an ordinary Soviet family. Parents at that moment lived in the city of Simferopol. My father worked as an aircraft technician. Mother worked as an accountant. The house often sounded music and songs. The head of the family decently played the accordion, sang ditties and romances. His favorite song was "Scows full of mullet." After some time, Begunov Sr. was transferred to a new duty station in the Arkhangelsk region. Here Volodya played bass in a local rock band called "Tsunami".
Creative activity
In 1976, the Begunovs moved for permanent residence in the capital of the Urals, the city of Sverdlovsk. Here Vladimir from the first days joined the school ensemble. The creative tandem of Shakhrin-Begunov was productive and durable. After school, friends decided to get an education at the College of Architecture and Civil Engineering. Almost the whole group went to this educational institution. Then Begunova, along with a friend, was drafted into the armed forces. Serve them in the Far East in the border troops. Returning from the army, Vladimir got a job on a construction site, and spent all his free time with friends and a guitar.
The date of birth of the famous rock band "Chayf" is considered 1984. In the fall of next year, the first official concert under this brand took place. And after this event, Begunov quit the construction department and professionally engaged in musical creativity. The personal career of a musician is inextricably linked with the successes and failures of the rock band. In 1997, Ural musicians were invited to perform in the capital of Great Britain, London.
