Evgeny Konovalov is a popular Russian chanson performer. A sincere love for music, the ability to write and soulfully perform lyrical songs brought recognition from fans to a simple working guy.
The artist is working hard on a solo career, as evidenced by five solo albums, collaborating with other performers and helping young talents.
Childhood and youth
Evgeny Konovalov was born on December 17, 1979 in the city of Usolye-Sibirsky (Irkutsk region) in a family not connected with art. Soon the parents of the future chanson star moved to the city of Angarsk, located not far from their former place of residence. The childhood and school years of a talented child passed there.
Evgeny Konovalov in childhood and adolescence At first, Eugene studied at school number 25. The boy was considered a bully, so his mother was often forced to make excuses to his class teacher. During one conversation, the teacher recommended sending her son to a music school so that he would direct his energy in a useful direction, especially since Evgeny began to demonstrate musical abilities from the age of three. As a child, the boy stood on a stool and enthusiastically performed the songs “Katyusha”, “Bird of Happiness”, and others, popular in those years, in front of his relatives.
At the music school, Eugene studied accordion. At first, the parents wanted the boy to master the guitar, but since the enrollment in this direction was discontinued, they decided to choose the button accordion. As a result, Konovalov attended school for three years and was satisfied with his studies.
Later, the family moved to another district of Angarsk, and Evgeny began to attend school number 38. There he met new classmates, among whom was Roman Borzenkov, who later became his best friend.
When the guys were in the 7th grade, Roman suggested that Konovalov compose a song. The guys coped with this task, and Eugene just fell in love with writing poetry. Soon they write the lyrics for the second song, and a couple of days later the friends go to a music competition to perform their debut compositions on local radio. Eugene and Roman returned to school as recognized celebrities. Since 1995, Evgeny Konovalov began to write songs on his own, and his first youthful love gives him inspiration.
At the end of nine classes, Evgeny decides to study as a mechanical technician at school No. 32. This choice was not accidental, because the school had a pop art studio, which was led by a talented musician - Evgeny Yakushenko (father of the violinist Artem Yakushenko).
At the school, Eugene was most interested not in subjects in his specialty, but in music. The young man began to study in the studio of pop art and, together with other guys, often toured with concerts in the Irkutsk region.
Having received a diploma in mechanical engineering, Konovalov was drafted into the army, but even there he did not forget about his passion. Far from family and friends, Zhenya wrote the soulful song "For Friends". At the end of military service at the training center of the military institute in the city of Krasnodar, a talented guy leaves the army with the rank of junior reserve lieutenant.
Music
This was followed by a time of searching for oneself and striving to reveal creative abilities. Eugene records songs in Mikhail Prozorov's studio. In addition, Konovalov collaborates with Eduard Pokrovsky and Viktor Zherebtsov. The compositions recorded during this period soon become popular among the inhabitants of Angarsk thanks to the good old "word of mouth".
Eugene was full of musical ideas and wanted to develop further. However, music did not yet bring him a stable income. The guy was forced to work as a mechanic at a chemical plant. He worked hard for six years in this hazardous industry. But being an ambitious person, Eugene continues to study. His choice fell on the Angarsk Technical Academy, and after graduating from it, he received the qualification of an engineer.
In 2007, Konovalov got a job at the city's energy company. Despite a solid position, he decides to quit his job and focus exclusively on music. In the studio of Irkutsk, the aspiring singer re-records the best songs at that time: “For friends”, “Olya”, “Close people”, “I can’t live without you”, etc. After that, Evgeny’s compositions began to fall into pirate chanson collections, which indicated their demand.

In 2012, progress was made in the creative biography of the young artist. He presented his first solo album called "Thank you for the love." It included 13 songs, the words and music of which were written by Konovalov himself.
In the same year, many of Eugene's compositions were included in the database of the Ukrainian Radio Chanson. As a result, the best songs of the young singer (for example, “I'll kill you”, “Where to run”, “Don't yell”, etc.) participated in the hit parade of this radio station.
Konovalov continued his collaboration with Lyubov Shepilova, and in 2013 their second common composition “I'm sorry” appeared. In addition, Evgeny's duet with the talented singer Galina Zhuravleva turned out to be no less fruitful. The result of their joint work was the romantic and tender song "White Snow". In the same year, the second album of a talented chanson artist called "White Roses" was released.
The musical composition "White Roses" has become the singer's hallmark, Eugene was confident in the hit from the moment it was written. The song also became the favorite piece of music for Konovalov's eldest daughter.
Eugene himself classifies his songs as a genre of lyrical pop song. His favorite musical group, which the performer is equal to, is. Today, Konovalov's songs are performed by many pop artists. For example, among them are Galina Zhuravleva, Lyubov Shepilova, and others.

Previously, the vocalist of this project was a performer who, after the completion of the contract, began work under his own name.

But after hostilities began in Ukraine, Evgeny stopped cooperation with the authors of the project.

According to the artist, this name rhymes easily and poems are written quickly.

The author-performer of the lyrical chanson - Evgeny Alekseevich Konovalov, was born on December 17, 1979, in a small Siberian town - Usolye-Sibirskoye, in the Irkutsk region. Almost immediately after birth, the family moved to the neighboring city of Angarsk. Zhenya began to comprehend the musical field at the age of two, like all children, speaking to relatives from a stool, singing "Bird of Happiness" and "Katyusha" ... Further - more ...
At the insistence of his mother, Zhenya enters a music school in the accordion class. Initially, it was planned to study the guitar, but due to the full set and the lack of vacancies for this instrument, the choice fell on the button accordion. Excerpts for practicing on an unwanted instrument were enough for exactly three years. On this, the development of musical granite successfully ended.
After the fifth grade, in connection with the move, Zhenya is transferred to school number 38, where he meets a classmate and friend for many years - Roman Borzenkov. Somehow, while sitting at a Russian language lesson, studying already in the 7th grade, Roman offers to compose a song ... The effect of the general writing made a special impression on Evgeny. Another song followed. Within a couple of days, Roman and Evgeniy performed two of their works with the guitar at the author's song contest live on the local radio. The next day, they came to school "famous". At one fine moment, Zhenya begins to write his first love songs on his own. Well, the incentive for this, of course, was love itself. Sincere love for a girl from a parallel class named Tatyana.
After the ninth grade, Eugene enters vocational school No. 32 as a technician - mechanic. At that time, a pop art studio worked at the school, under the guidance of a well-known musician in the city - Yevgeny Yakushenko (father of violinist Artyom Yakushenko from the duet "White Jail"). Eugene is successfully engaged in this studio, touring the Irkutsk region with young performers like him.
After college - service in the army. The song "For Friends" was also written there. After completing military service at the training center of the Krasnodar Military Institute FAPSI, in a company of reserve officers, Evgeny retires to civilian life with the rank of reserve junior lieutenant. Recordings of their songs immediately begin at Mikhail Prozorov's home studio. Evgeny also collaborates with Viktor Zherebtsov, Eduard Pokrovsky. "Demo" records with great speed dispersed throughout the city, by means of "word of mouth". The songs could be heard anywhere. Realizing that they "go to the people", Eugene stocks up with an incentive to write new songs.
By that time, he was working at an electrolysis chemical plant. The regime facility for uranium enrichment receives Yevgeny as a locksmith of the 4th category. He devoted six years to hazardous production, while studying at the Angarsk State Technical Academy, as an engineer of electrochemical production technology.
In March 2005, the day before his own wedding, the same school friend Roman Borzenkov tragically passed away. For Eugene, it was a shock, from which he moved away for several long years. A song was written in memory of a friend.
In 2007, Eugene changes jobs. He gets a job as the chief of staff of civil defense and emergency situations in an energy company.
Either way, the music takes over. The quality of the recordings has become much to be desired. In May 2009, Evgeny participates in the city festival "Golden Voices", receives the "audience award". After, in January 2010, participation in the festival "Walk Soul", at the invitation of the Moscow chansonnier Lyalya Razmakhova. In June 2010, participation in the Black Rose festival in Ivanovo. A duet song was recorded on st. and music. Evgenia Konovalova "Strange" performed with the star of lyrical chanson Lyubov Shepilova.
Eugene believes in his work, in his songs. Counts on the fact that they will be loved not only at the level of their hometown, but will also win much greater recognition. You just have to do what works best. From now on, songs are recorded in the city of Irkutsk, in the studio of Andrey Volchenkov, with the calculation of the ratio of quality, for rotation on the radio. Eugene provides songwriting services to order for lyrical chanson artists, as well as songs for the women's repertoire. He is grateful to everyone who supports him in the musical field. First of all, to my family and friends, and of course to the Lord God, for an inexhaustible supply of creative baggage.
His favorite phrase is "Everything in this life is from God." After such words, there is no doubt that if a person is gifted from above to compose and sing beautiful songs with a deep meaning, then it is the power of heaven that will allow and help Eugene to carry his work to the masses, giving people only positive, "healing" emotions.
17 March 2013 Dear NPs, you already know that on March 5, the first solo concert of Evgeny Konovalov took place at the Khimik recreation center in the city of Usolye-Sibirskoye (Irkutsk region) - Zhenya's homeland.
I arrived at the Khimik Palace of Culture about 30 minutes before the start of the concert. In the foyer I was met by Zhenya's friend (because Zhenya had my ticket) and he is also his concert director (who, in fact, was the organizer of this concert) Alexei Kupanosov. I handed over things to the wardrobe and Alexei led me to Zhenya's dressing room.
I was glad to see Evgeny again (after his first presentation of the album, where we met for the first time in real life). Zhenya greeted me warmly, he looked great and was in a great mood, but he was still a little worried ... Yes, this is understandable! The first solo concert is a serious step for any performer!
But, of course, Zhenya tried not to show excitement - he laughed, joked ...
In the dressing room, we took some pictures and I, wishing Zhenya a successful performance, went to the auditorium.
Director of the House of Culture "Khimik" Maxim Viktorovich Toropkin, Evgeny Konovalov and Evgeny's concert director - Alexei Kupanosov.
After going to my place, I was convinced that I would perfectly see everything that would happen on the stage. I was sitting in the 4th row right in the center (Zhenya took care of it, thanks to him!))). I looked around… the hall was quite spacious, designed for 600 seats… the people were taking their seats… people were smiling and even before the start of the concert there was already some kind of warm atmosphere emanating from the audience.
But, now everyone sat down in their places ... and I looked around the hall again ... it was almost full, there were empty seats, but there were not so many of them. I was glad that so many people came to Zhenya's concert! After all, sometimes famous artists do not always collect such halls! This suggests that Eugene has already become famous among fellow countrymen and was able to win their love!
Moreover, at the end of February, Zhenya gave an interview on TV in the TK Usolye-11 program “Evening Together” and many residents of Usolye-Sibirsky learned from this program about a talented countryman, where he invited everyone to a concert.

You can watch and listen to the interview here.
Well, here the audience waited for the beginning of the concert. Presenter Pavel Skorokhodov stepped on the stage, who was also the presenter at the presentation of Zhenya's first solo album. He told the audience a little about the performer Evgeny Konovalov, about his achievements and some plans for the future, and announced Zhenya's exit.
Pavel Skorokhodov is a famous showman, musician, performer.
To thunderous applause, Zhenya entered the stage, warmly greeted the audience and began to sing ...
Keyboardist - Eduard Pokrovsky, guitarist - Alexey Yuryshev.
By the way, Eduard Pokrovsky is also our site composer and my co-author. Who I met in real life for the first time.
It was noticeable that the audience liked Zhenya's songs ... smiles almost never left the faces of the listeners, someone clapped, someone sang along while Zhenya sang ... Between songs, he constantly communicated with the audience, the atmosphere was somehow warm at home ... The audience often laughed, because Zhenya constantly said something with humor ...
This is so conceived - they let in smoke ....)))))
The first part of the concert went great!
Then Pavel Skorokhodov came out and sang two songs, while Zhenya changed clothes in the dressing room and took a breath ...)))
And Evgeny Konovalov appeared on the stage again!
In the second part of the concert, the audience already got used to it perfectly, and Zhenya already felt completely free and everything went just super! Between the songs, the auditorium very often rose and for a long, long time the audience applauded Zhenya! It was cool!
Here the audience stood up and applauded Zhenya. I couldn't help but turn around and take a picture))) And it happened more than once....
In the second part of the concert, Evgeny performed the song "Ah, come on, brother!", written by him and me in collaboration. He introduced me to the public as his co-author (which was very nice). Of course, after this song, I went on stage and gave Zhenya a bouquet of flowers and ... a soft toy (which has become a tradition with us))) ...
Well, here I went to Zhenya with a bouquet ... and he once again introduced me to the public (I was very embarrassed, because on stage ... I was introduced as a co-author for the first time)))) And he (the trickster)) stepped back from me so that I could not quickly escape from the stage (because he was in no hurry to take a bouquet from me ... so that I turn to the audience))) ...
All in all, I really enjoyed the concert. Zhenya worked on the stage with dedication, so to speak ... “up to a sweat”!)) He said so: “It was as if he had been in a bathhouse!”)))
Zhenya sang the final song, but the audience did not want to let him go, again they applauded for a very long time and he again sang the song “Where to run?” for an encore ... It was felt that Evgeny won the hearts of the public and people really did not want the concert to end and not wanted to leave the auditorium.
Of course, they didn’t just let Zhenya go after the concert ... Fans surrounded him and began to ask for an autograph ... Someone held out a disk with Zhenya’s album, someone held out a notebook, someone a concert ticket ... everyone wanted an autograph! And, as at the presentation, a queue formed again ... Zhenya was constantly joking with the people here ... There were no invisible walls in communicating with people! Women, girls laughed, talked with him ....
This is how an artist sometimes has to work))) He was not allowed to leave the stage, they immediately began to ask for autographs))) Well, how could an artist refuse his beloved audience?))
But he was spared (because there was a big queue) and they took out a table and a chair for him.)))
Zhenya, signing the ticket, wished this girl to get married! He promised her that this would definitely come true soon!))) He asked the girls: “Who else wants to get married?”)) ... Then they handed him a ticket for an autograph, but warned that the woman was already married!))) In general, it was a lot of fun ... And Zhenya was able to charm the weak half of humanity!
When he was signing autographs, a guy of about 25 approached him and asked him to write wishes for him on a disk and an autograph. Looking at him, Zhenya asked ... “What do you wish? Whatever you ask, it will be fulfilled ”... The guy was confused ... Zhenya looked into his eyes and wrote“ I wish you children ”.... The guy said “I already have a child” ... to which Konovalov replied “There will be more” ... And the most amazing and inexplicable thing is that the next day this guy wrote to Evgeny in personal correspondence in “classmates” that as soon as he returned from the concert , the wife said that she was in a position and they would have a replenishment. The guy was shocked in the truest sense of the word ... And this is not a joke, friends! It's true!!!
And another one of the fans asked Zhenya to listen to her (she really wanted to show him her vocal abilities). Zhenya agreed ... she sang the chorus of the song “Where to run” right on stage ... and she sang perfectly (I also heard) ... So on April 14, at the presentation of the second album, this very girl will act as a backing vocalist for Evgeny! The girl was in seventh heaven with happiness! So, spontaneously, not in the eyebrow, but in the eye!)))
In the near future, the "capture" of the nearby cities of the Irkutsk region is planned. Thank God that Eugene is no longer alone and he has a team of decent people who believe in success and help him achieve it as quickly as possible!
I would like to say that Zhenya worked out the concert program with a bang! Of course, his fatigue was visible ... but this is understandable! Live sound - it's not for you to open your mouth under the "plywood"!))))) 19 songs, after all ... ... but there was also great satisfaction, which Zhenya did not hide at all!
On the eve of March 8, congratulations for women from Evgeny Konovalov turned out perfectly!!!
I am very glad that our NARPRODOV members are making progress!!! Go to your goal despite the difficulties!
Zhen, I wish you to go to your intended goal, overcoming step by step to the heights of popularity! Health, love and happiness to you and your family!!! You will succeed!!!

***
A young Russian musician, performer of songs in the style of "lyrical chanson" Evgeny Konovalov (full name - Konovalov Evgeny Alekseevich), was born in the Irkutsk region of Russia, in the city of Usolye-Sibirskoye. Yevgeny Konovalov's date of birth is December 17, 1979 (12/17/1979).
As a child, Eugene moved with his family to live in the city of Angarsk. Evgeny Konovalov studied at the twenty-fifth school. He was clearly not a good boy, and his parents were often called to school for Zhenya's "tricks". The class teacher Evgenia advised to send the boy to study at a music school, as she noticed that he often likes to sing even in the classroom. At the music school, Evgeny Konovalov first began to study accordion, but the boy had no craving for this instrument, and three years later Zhenya said goodbye to him.
Soon Evgeny's family moved again, and the boy began to study at the thirty-eighth school in Angarsk. There, fate brought him to classmate Roman Borzenkov.
