Andrey Razin: biography

On September 15, 1963, Andrey Alexandrovich Razin was born in the city of Stavropol. The father of our hero comes from the city of Grodno in Belarus, and his mother is from the Stavropol Territory. Razin's parents died in a car accident. After that, he ended up in an orphanage in Svetlograd, Stavropol Territory. The cloudless days are over for him. But he didn't give up. In the orphanage, Andrei began to engage in creative and organizational activities.

In 1978, Andrey Razin entered GPTU No. 24, where he mastered the profession of a bricklayer. In 1979, our hero graduated from college and, in the direction of the Komsomol, was sent to work in the regions of the Far North. There he spent several years of his life.

The start of the journey

In 1982 Razinreturned back, where he entered the Stavropol "Cultural Education School". A year later (in 1983), our hero left to serve in the army. Having repaid his debt to the Motherland, he got a job at the Ryazan Regional Philharmonic as a deputy director. He worked there for a very short time. His character did not allow him to stop at the achieved result and sit in one place.

In 1986, he changed his position as deputy director of the Philharmonic Society and took the place of deputy chairman for supply at the Sverdlov collective farm in the village of Privolny, Stavropol Territory.

Posing as an employee of the ministry, he persuaded Sergei Kuznetsov (the founder of the group) to move to Moscow with the team for further cooperation.

After that, the guys started touring constantly, recording new hits and albums. The main hits of "Tender May" were written by Sergei Kuznetsov,who led and maintained discipline in the team. The group was promoted by Andrey Razin. "Tender May", thanks to his efforts, has gained immense popularity. Gradually, Kuznetsov stepped aside, and our hero began to do everything himself. The group gave four concerts a day. The record was eight performances in a day. Wanting to earn even more money, Andrey found doubles and arranged concerts simultaneously in different cities, to the soundtrack, passing off completely different people as members of the Tender May group.
