They are called unique, original, unformatted and are loved for their dissimilarity, naturalness and sincerity. The duet "2Masha" literally took off to the musical peak with the song "Barefoot", which in a short period gained more than 50 thousand views. In the comments, they were praised for their simplicity and heartfelt text. After the resounding success, Masha Zaitseva and Maria Sheikh continued to work together, released several videos and two albums. Their performances gather halls, and the songs are played on radio stations. Their voices and appearance are not similar, but at the same time they organically complement each other. Listeners have already fallen in love with their songs: poignant “Now there are two of us”, bright “Red White”, sensual “Facts” and others.

Duet "2Masha"

Dew on the face, I'm barefoot to you, And I throw words into the wind.

Dew on the face, I'm barefoot to you, I'm running after you to the ends of the world barefoot!

"Barefoot"

(hereinafter the verses of Mary Sheikh)

Two Mashas say they don't need a producer. They solve all creative and organizational issues among themselves, maintaining friendship and respect. Perhaps that is why they remain natural, without cheated views and purchased comments. It is difficult to attribute them to any particular genre, and this is the uniqueness of the 2Masha duet.

The beginning of the creative path

Beauty in every moment.

In my eyes, infinity blue.

Here is reality, and there are photos in the feed, Memories of the warm days of my summer.

Masha Zaitseva and Masha Sheikh met back in 2014 in Thailand and have been friends ever since. At first, there were no plans for joint work. But Maria Sheikh, who wrote poetry from childhood, once sketched the text of the future song “Now there are two of us” on a beat sent by a friend. The girls joke that the project "2Masha" appeared in Zaitseva's kitchen, where the Sheikh showed an unborn song.

Masha Zaitseva, who has a beautiful melodic voice, offered to sing the chorus "Now there are two of us." Netizens reacted with admiration to the new track, unlike anything else. The duet was supported and asked not to stop at one song.

The girls realized that their creative tandem could be successful. The name was also suggested by the listeners. The video with the song was reposted with the hashtag 2masha, and both Mashas liked the way it looked. This is how the duo got its name.

The girls inspire each other and try to solve even difficult administrative issues together. Maria Sheikhwrites texts and organizes concerts, signing contracts, draws up riders and schedules. Masha Zaitseva is responsible for music and publicity, interviews, social media and track releases. But girls always help each other.

Masha Zaitseva

Let's become the creator of people like us.

You are the inspiration and stimulus for my ideas.

May dreams come true -

That's why they are dreams.

My love is the whole world.

You will be my family.

For Masha Zaitseva, participation in the 2Masha project was not a revelation. Back in 2003, she took part in the People's Artist project and impressed the judges with her vocals. Masha was in the top four finalists, where producer Evgeny Fridland noticed her and invited her to the Assorti group. After leaving the group, in 2014 Masha Zaitseva tried herself in the Voice project on Channel One, where she also had success, but did not make it to the final.

Masha is a bright and creative person. She is engaged not only in music, but also draws pictures, drives a car beautifully and brings up her daughter. Even at the "People's Artist" she met the future winner of the project Alexei Goman, and soon the young people began to live together. Their couple broke up, but maintained a great relationship, including because of their daughter Alexandrina.

Masha Sheikh

Knots are tight.

Turn off the voltage.

Eyes untied.

Now I know what I want.

The other member of the duo doesn't have much stage experience. However, the creative biography of Maria Sheikh begins in childhood,when she, as a child, wrote beautiful poems and dreamed of being read. Masha was born in Moscow on April 26, 1990, studied at a regular school, then entered the Faculty of Law at Moscow State Pedagogical University.

But music was and remains her vocation. In a duet, her role is to rap. Masha herself believes that she simply reads her poems, set to music and rhythm, without adjusting to the Western style of performance.

She always knew what she wanted and is sure that her participation in the duet is what you need, because everyone is doing their own thing. Masha Zaitseva sings, Masha Sheikh reads. She admits that in her work she sometimes challenges herself. So it was with the release of the first album, when it was necessary to write lyrics for new songs in a very short time. And despite the fact that writing poetry is a creative process, Masha had to draw inspiration from the most ordinary things. Perhaps that is why the public liked their songs so much.

Concerts and fans

Set your priorities.

The fruits will soon take root, And we will see future portraits.

Similar thoughts will be freer.

If Masha Zaitseva is accustomed to attention, then Maria Sheikh was at first stunned by the reaction of the listeners to the first songs. But the girl believes that the love of fans is the best reward for any artist. Masha sees the secret of their success in the fact that they sing what seems natural to them, about their experiences and feelings. A duet is not a project created by someone, but a spiritual union of two talented people. And although they did not expect such success,they are open and honest with their fans. The duet members willingly share their thoughts and new songs on social networks on the official page, where each subscriber can ask the girls a question. Maria Sheikh has a personal page on Instagram, Facebook and VK.

Rumors and personal life

Love doesn't need a religion, Love needs no words.

She is Great for me, But it is not given to many.

Masha Sheikh has an unusual appearance and image in a duet. Masha is tall, she has characteristic facial features and a sharp look, which sometimes raises many questions. If Masha Zaitseva is asked why she doesn’t post photos of her daughter, then Masha Sheikh often hears questions about men, who, according to some subscribers, are too few in a girl’s life. More often than not, she skips negative comments past her eyes and ears and doesn't respond. But occasionally he goes to the profile of the person who left a negative comment in order to understand him. However, the biography and personal life of Maria Sheikh is not a secret. She does not hide the fact that her heart is still free, and someday she definitely plans to find a family and become a mother. In the meantime, her motivation and incentive to move on is her love for music and the need to create. 2Mashi believe in their success.
