prt scr youtube.com | SHAMANPerformer Yaroslav Dronov is known by his pseudonym SHAMAN. Why the singer came up with the idea to perform under this name, found out the head of the TASS “First Persons” special project Andrey Vandenko.
Dronov admitted that the idea of ​​performing under a pseudonym arose due to the desire to separate public and private lives. SHAMAN also revealed the origin of his stage name:
“I started reading fan comments under my songs, and there were words around: a magical song, a haunting voice, a voice that puts you in hypnosis, a spatial story. They even said that Lolita Milyavskaya in the show “Factor A” had mentioned shamanism. All this prompted me to take such a pseudonym. The viewer accepted and understood everything. Everything came out of the comments.”
The pseudonym really divided Dronov’s life into stage and ordinary. Leaving the concert, he switches and becomes a person who lives quietly without bright costumes, writes songs, invents images and engages in creativity.
“If we talk about magic, witchcraft, witchcraft, I think it exists, but only for those who believe in it”, summarizes SHAMAN.
In the same interview, the performer answered several uncomfortable questions. Dronov denied the charges of “commercial patriotism”.
