Andrey Vadimovich Makarevich PAR (Russian: Андре́й Вади́мович Макаре́вич; born 11 December 1953 in Moscow, Soviet Union) is a Soviet and Russian rock musician and the founder of Russia's oldest still active rock band Mashina Vremeni (Time Machine).

Personal life

Makarevich was born in Moscow to mixed heritage parents of Belarusian (royal peasantry),[1] Polish aristocracy (from the Sas family), Greek[2] and Jewish[3] origin. He graduated from Moscow Institute of Architecture as a graphics artist. He is Christian.[citation needed]

Career

As a youth, Makarevich was a big fan of English rock band The Beatles. In 1969, he founded Mashina Vremeni, a rock band largely inspired by western rock and blues of the time. He is the band's singer and guitarist. While their music is written by all the members, Makarevich is the band's exclusive lyrics writer.

Makarevich also released eight solo albums, participated in regular TV shows and assisted other groups and artists. He authored several poetry collections and two volumes of memoirs. Makarevich is also interested in painting. He accompanied Mikhail Gorbachev on his solo album in 2009.[4]

Makarevich performed for Ukraine's internally displaced people during the war in Donbass in the Ukrainian town Svyatogorsk in August 2014.[5] Deputy of the State Duma Yevgeny Alexeyevich Fyodorov vowed to strip Makarevich of all Russian state honors, describing his performance in Svyatogorsk as "collaborating with the fascists".[5][6] Later that month, NTV aired a documentary titled 13 Friends of the Junta in which Makarevich was described as a "traitor" and supporter of fascists. The Moscow Times reported that footage of his concert "was merged with images of the fighting that he supposedly endorsed. The program never mentions that the concert was for the benefit of Ukraine's internally displaced children."[7]

In July 2015, Makarevich together with Ukrainian band Haydamaky and Polish singer Maciej Maleńczuk presented a new song, Only love will keep you alive (Тільки любов залишить тебе живим). The lyrics of the song are written in three languages – Russian, Ukrainian and Polish.[8][9]
