Twelve years ago, the sixth season of the popular musical show "Star Factory" started on the country's television screens. Among the participants stood out a curly blond with a hoarse voice, clearly gravitating towards rock. And this is in a "pop" project! The young rocker's name was Roman Arkhipov. Later, viewers will see him as part of the Chelsea group. How is Roman's career going now, and what is he currently doing?

Childhood

The future soloist of the Chelsea group Roman Arkhipov was lucky enough to be born into a not the most simple family. His father, Igor, or Gosha - as he is affectionately called in a musical get-together, is far from the last person in it: in the nineties he was known for being engaged in concert activities of pop performers - for example, Tatyana Ovsienko. Much later, he continued to do the same, promoting the Chelsea group. However, let's not get ahead of ourselves. None of this happened yet on that gloomy cold day on November 9, 1984, when Roma, the first son in the family, was born. ita happy event for the Arkhipov couple took place in the city of Gorky - now Nizhny Novgorod, since it was there that the Arkhipovs lived at that time.

From infancy, Roma was surrounded by music. And in Nizhny Novgorod, and in Sochi, where the Arkhipovs moved literally shortly after the birth of their son, and even more so in Moscow, where the father moved the family in the year when Roma was seven years old. He went to the first class already in the capital. And even before the ordinary school, six-year-old Roman began studying piano at a music school. And he didn’t abandon her later, as many children do, unable to withstand the loads, but brought what he started to the end. This showed the stubborn character of Roman Arkhipov - this is how he lives his whole life, achieving his plan.

First steps in the musical field

In Moscow, Roma's father began to closely organize concerts of the then very popular Tatyana Ovsienko. Tatyana - and not only she - often visited the Arkhipovs at home, they constantly played music, someone was singing … Roman was slowly boiling in this cauldron, and it is not at all surprising that he decided to take up music. Moreover, the boy had a good voice.

The first steps on the musical Olympus Roman Arkhipov in those days did not do it himself - with the help of his father. Rather, with the help of Tatyana Ovsienko, he went on tour with the artist and her team. And then a transitional age came, and the boy's voice broke.

Students and return to music

When the voice broke, Roman, what to hide, abandoned the music. By this time he was ableto play not only the piano - he also mastered the bass guitar, because this instrument was more suitable for the rocker that Roman saw himself as. From childhood, he fell in love with rock, is faithful to it to this day - and it is not surprising that it was in this genre that he dreamed of developing. However, he dropped everything, switching to studies. It was time for graduation. Roma completed his graduation class as an external student - and went to study in the United States for a year. It was then that he realized: the voice returned. And along with the voice, the desire to sing returned again, and the ability to slowly compose songs himself appeared. Roman Arkhipov (pictured) came to Moscow with the firm intention of devoting his life to music.

Nevertheless, the young man went to get his education at Moscow State University at the Faculty of International Relations (he graduated in the summer of 2006). In parallel with his studies, Roma studied music, realizing that he needed some kind of opportunity to try his hand at the big stage. And such an opportunity presented itself: Roman passed the casting for the sixth season of the Star Factory project.

Factory on First

The appearance of Roman Arkhipov on such a show was surprising because Roma was a little "out of shape". The project involved the performance of pop music, Roma gravitated toward rock and openly stated that he would reshape the format of this TV show. However, he partially succeeded in the latter: he sang in duets with artists of a more "heavy" orientation, such as Olga Kormukhina, Gorky Park, Nikolai Noskov, as well as foreign groups "Scorpions" and"Gotthard".

Roman Arkhipov did not reach the final - he dropped out of the project before him, the very last one. However, he found his listener, was remembered by the audience, and also found three good friends on the project, with whom he joined the new Chelsea boy band.

In the Chelsea group

The producer of the new band was Viktor Drobysh, the concert director was Roman's father Igor. Arkhipov Jr. stayed in the team for five years. During this time, the guys released two albums, shot several videos, traveled half the country with concerts, became the "Best Group" and received the Golden Gramophone award.

Roman gained experience and decided to try himself as a separate creative unit. In June 2011, after the band's fifth anniversary, Roman Arkhipov left Chelsea. Nevertheless, he still maintains friendly relations with the guys and, as he admitted in a recent interview, he dreams of “shaking the old days” some summer and traveling with Chelsea with concerts. Perhaps someday this will happen.

Solo career. States

Roman Arkhipov decided to promote his songs in the West. And so he moved to Los Angeles. And so he lives to this day - in two houses, then running into Moscow, then returning to the States. In America, he collaborates with eminent producers and musicians who have worked with world-famous artists. Roman also records his songs in English.

Initially, Arkhipov tried to make himself known to Western listeners under the pseudonym Troy Harley - he decided that forit sounds more harmonious to a foreign ear. However, he subsequently abandoned this idea and created the R. O. M. A. N. project last year

Success

Last autumn, Roma returned to Russia to take part in the musical show "Success", which started on the STS channel. In this project, Roman took an honorable second place. In his own words, he was offered to participate in the project, and this offer was a complete surprise for the musician.

In an interview, Roman admitted that at first it was not easy for him to put himself under the round-the-clock sights of television cameras again, in addition, he was embarrassed by a certain inequality: compared to many other participants in the show, Roma has quite a lot of experience in performing. However, in the end, ambition took over.

Roman's family and personal life

Despite the fact that Roma is already a "grown up boy", he is not yet married. His family is father Igor, mother Svetlana, younger brother Nikita and dog Bradley, with whom Roma does not part even in America.

As for Arkhipov's personal life, there is not much information here. His girlfriends - and Roman is quite loving - the musician tries to hide. Five years ago, there was a rather high-profile scandal associated with the names of Roman Arkhipov and Ekaterina Klimova, a famous actress, wife (at that time) of actor Igor Petrenko. The couple was spotted kissing and hugging at a party in the States. This was followed by a divorce of the actors, although Arkhipov claimedthat that girl just looked like Catherine.

Later, the artist met with a Ukrainian model named Daria. Whether his heart is free now is not known for certain.
