Ígor Ivánovich (Gárik) Sukachóv (Russian: И́горь Ива́нович (Га́рик) Сукачё́в; December 1, 1959) a Russian poet, musician, singer-songwriter, actor, film director and TV presenter.[1]
Career
Igor Ivanovich Sukachov was born in a Moscow suburb Myakinino (now Tushino), son to a military man who fought in the World War II and went all the way from Moscow to Berlin in 1941-1945. His mother was a Nazi concentration camp survivor.[2]
Having graduated the railway technical college, Sukachyov became a transport engineer and even took part in designing the Tushino railway station, then an abrupt change of mind brought him to the Lipetsk Culture and Education college's theater which he graduated in 1977 with a theater director diploma. The same year he formed the band Zakat Solntsa Vruchnuyu (Sunset manually), which after the release of one album on tape broke up in 1983. Also in 1983, with Evgeny Khavtan, Sukachyov created another band Postscriptum, which released one album (Don't Give Up!, 1982) and (after his departure) in 1984 joined forces with singer Zhanna Aguzarova to become Bravo.[2]
In 1986 with guitarist Sergey Galanin (whom he knew from his Lipetsk days) he formed Brigada S, the self-described 'proletarian jazz orchestra'. They released six studio albums, featured in Savva Kulish's film The Tragedy in Rock, toured the United States and (after two line-up changes involving Galanin's quitting and returning) disbanded in 1993. In 1989 Sukachyov co-organized (alongside Alexander F. Sklyar) the Rock Against Terror event which featured a speech (one of the first in the Soviet Union) in the defense of sexual minorities' rights.[3]
In 1994 Sukachyov formed Neprikasayemye, a more urban folk-oriented outfit which released nine studio albums in 1994-2010. The band held massive tours across Russia and did several concerts with Emir Kusturica. Sukachov's solo career started in 1991; he released ten studio solo albums including My Vysotsky (2014). The Melody of Sukachov's song "Napoi menia vodoi" ("Quench my thirst") was used in Robert Miles's 1995 song Children.[2][4]
In 1988 Sukachov started his career in cinema: he appeared in twenty films (mostly in 1991-1999) and shoot three more himself, as a director.[2] In 1999 Sukachyov published his first book The King of the Boulevard (Korol prospekta), followed by Where the Rain Ends (Gde konchayetsa dozhd, 2001).[1][4]
Views
Garik Sukachov since December 2014 publicly supports Russian separatists in the war on East Ukraine.[5] In January 2015 in the Internet appeared video with song recorded to support separatists. Actor Ivan Okhlobystin and musician Alexander F. Sklyar also took part in it.[6]
