Animal Jazz

Animal Jaz are modest guys from St. Petersburg. Perhaps the only adults whom successive generations of adolescents listen to with interest. Music, concerts, new rhymes are what artists live with every day since the project was founded. The audience loves them for their sincerity, and they never get tired of giving her new hits in return.

The creative team was created in 2000 in St. Petersburg. Contrary to the tradition popular among rock bands, the musicians were not young rebels who dreamed of "tearing up" the hall or smashing the guitar on the floor. The ideological leader and inspirer of the team - Alexander Mikhailovich Krasovitsky - was 28 years old at that time.

Before the creation of the group, he managed to move to the Northern capital from Magadan, enter the Faculty of Sociology at St. Petersburg State University, teach, get a degree in marketing, do an internship abroad, get married, and have a child. Nothing foreshadowed the appearance in the biography of the musical scene, although Sasha sang, in his words, "from God."

He demonstrated vocals in a youth choir, in a student dormitory, but he seriously took up music, being an adult on a passport. In 1999, he appeared at a concert by Zemfira:

The team was formed spontaneously. Vocalist Mikhalych and bass guitarist Igor Bulygin at that time played in a common project. The rehearsals took place in one of the St. Petersburg cellars, where many performers, both professionals and amateurs, worked. Once, having again heard the "neighbors" behind the wall, the future frontman offered to play together.

In addition, in his piggy bank there were developments and unrealized ideas, in the embodiment of which a fresh creative look would not hurt. So the composition of the group was enriched with a backing vocalist with a guitar, keyboardist and drummer.

Given the ease with which creative alliances break up, especially in the underground scene, the team has remained a model of cohesion for many years. Three out of five participants - Krasovitsky (vocals), Bulygin (bass) and Ryakhovsky (backing and guitar) - have been performing since the foundation. In 2007, Alexander Zarankin (keys) joined the project, and a year later - Sergey Kivin (drums).

We thought about the name for a long time. As a result, at one of the sessions, the first drummer of the project, Sergei Egorov, shared with his colleagues that he had previously played in a project called "Animal Jaz", but he is the only one of its participants. At first glance, the story seemed too grim to the comrades in the shop. However, when it came time to print posters and leaflets for the first concert, no other options were found. The musicians still consider the name inherited as a legacy.

The band's compositions stylistically fit into the framework of several rock genres: alternative, art-rock, indie, as well as post-grunge. The artists themselves identify their direction as “heavy guitar eclecticism”.

The author of the texts is Krasovitsky. According to the vocalist, writing words is much more difficult than writing music. The process takes a lot of time and effort, but he cannot perform other people's rhymes:

In 2018, the team celebrated the “coming of age” of creative activity with the album “Happiness”. During the previous years, 9 numbered discs were issued. One of the most successful works was the sixth studio album “Step Inspiration”. The song of the same name from this disc was released as a soundtrack to the film "Graffiti" by Igor Apasyan. The film has received several awards at prestigious festivals: in Tokyo, Seoul, Lagov, Yerevan.

And yet the main song was "Three Stripes". The hymn of youth and love of a tender age has become a landmark for several generations of adolescents, whose problems remain the same in 2006 and 2016. The composition received the "Best Hit of the Year" award at the prestigious A-ONE TV channel RAMP award.

Also on the account of the artists are 4 acoustic collections. Several albums from the discography were recorded with funds raised through crowdfunding platforms. Some clips were released for the same money. According to the musicians, every time it is a pleasant surprise for them, a surprise that they do not try to get used to.

The group has repeatedly become a participant in national music festivals: "Maksidrom", "Wings", "Invasion". Bi-2, Leprikonsy, Agatha Christie, Chizh & Co performed with them at atmospheric events. Even having become popular performers, the artists gladly played “opening act” for foreign colleagues: Garbage, The Rasmus, Linkin Park.

In 2012, at a concert before the RHCP show in St. Petersburg, viewers first heard the joint composition of Mikhalych and singer MakSim. The famous pop singer unexpectedly appeared before the audience in an unusual role. Later, a video was shot for the song "Live", which collected millions of views on YouTube.

This is not the only experience of collaborating with other stars. For example, in 2009 the track “Everything is Possible” was created with Vladi from “Kasta”, which for a long time was in the rotation of music TV channels, including MTV.

Artists are constantly on the road, but they speak of the nomadic life with humor:

Since 2011, two Alexandra (keyboardist and vocalist) have been leading the side project Zero People. The duo works in the genre of authentic minimalist rock, without interfering with the format of the main creative employment of both musicians. Games with words, a minimum of expressive means (vocals, beats, keys) emphasize the narrow specifics and a small number of listeners of this experiment.

More often than other participants in the press, there are photos and interviews of the soloist of the group. He talks about creative plans, premieres of new videos, songs. The vocalist's personal life is of interest to the group's fans. Little is known about her.

The singer was in a relationship with Max - the creative tandem grew into a romance. The lovers frankly showed their feelings in public during the "warm-up" of the RHCP, ending with a kiss. The album "Phases of REM sleep" was dedicated to the singer. Soon the performers parted. The couple did not report the reasons for the breakup. There is no reliable information about the singer's other relationships.

The group's tour is scheduled months in advance. Nevertheless, even in such a tight schedule, there is still time for extra-musical activities. For example, Bulygin and Krasovitsky run a popular underground music portal that is visited by 2-3 thousand people every day. Also, the frontman is seriously interested in street graffiti art.

On Instagram, he posts photos of striking examples of street art every hour. There are enough content providers: the artist receives letters from all over the world. In addition, he manages to act in films little by little. Film "School Shooter" with his participation in the post-production stage. He is an ambassador for Shure Incorporated, a musical equipment company.
