Alexander Pushnoy is a very bright and outstanding person. He is not just an artist, comedian and television presenter, but also a gifted musician, famous for his covers on world hits. It was he who performed Boyarsky's Green-eyed Taxi in a heavy ram-like version. In this article, you will not only get acquainted in detail with aspects of the musician’s life, but you can also see interesting photos of Alexander Pushnoy. Despite the fact that he looks a little strange, in fact, he is a man with a living mind and a clear mind.
Childhood
Pushnoy Alexander Borisovich was born in one of the maternity hospitals of Novosibirsk on May 16, 1975. The parents of the future star were representatives of the scientific intelligentsia - dad was engaged in cybernetics, and my mother worked in the field of economics. That is why little Sasha was told the fate of a great scientist, and not a merry fellow from a blue screen.
At the age of seven, Pushnoy went to study music notation at the local art school, but success in this matter was not achieved immediately. But in the end, Sasha was drawn into the jungle of piano music, he realized what was happening, and things went smoothly.
Youth
At the age of 12, Alexander Pushnoy was fascinated by the charm of the guitar, and he learned all the basics of playing this unique instrument, without any help. It was then that he realized that his whole life should be accompanied by music and often spoke to the company of his comrades. Despite all the love of art, Sasha did not enter either the theater school or the conservatory. And he went (apparently, at the request of his parents) to gnaw the granite of science at the Novosibirsk State University, at the Faculty of Physics, which he successfully graduated in due time.
The first serious musical experience was the rock group "Bear", which rehearsed at the Institute of NSU, or rather - in one of its basements. Despite the fact that the collective lasted no more than three years, songs of those times can be found on the musician's official website.
Activities in KVN
As a student, Alexander Pushnoy liked to amuse people by performing with an entertainment program at the Kvant club or at university parties. Then it was noticed by the guys from the KVN team of Novosibirsk, and invited to his place. The main task of Sasha was the creation of grotesque parodies of famous artists, with which he coped wonderfully. However, it lasted about a couple of years, after which he joined such groups as Siberian Siberians and Children of Lieutenant Schmidt.
By the beginning of the 2000s, Alexander Pushnoy had become a rather significant figure in the “Club of Cheerful and Inventive”, but that was far from all he was striving for. Armed with the talent and stubbornness of the "calf", the guy, stamping his hoof several times, rushed to conquer the domestic film industry and television. With such pressure, success was achieved, and his appearance with red tousled hair often began to flicker on the screen in various programs.
Songs
Alexander Pushnoy still raved about music, so in 2001 he wrote the main soundtrack for the film “The Eighteenth Instant of Spring”, in which, in fact, he starred himself. Despite the fact that the film was not entirely successful commercially, the talent of a smart little guy was noticed.
Little time passed, and Sasha was already head over heels busy with new work on the series “Pisaki”, in which he worked both as an actor and as a composer. It should be noted that the roles he received were very outstanding and vivid, but Alexander Pushnoy’s music attracted much more, so his acting career was put off the bat.
His compositions sounded in such television projects as “Southern Butovo”, “6 frames”, “Thank God, you came”, “Once at the police” and many others. The last work was the creation of tracks in 2013 for the series “Superheroes”.
After such cover hits in a unique “Pusnovsky” performance, such as “Take Me Across Maidan”, “Green-Eyed Taxi”, Du Taxi and “Clouds - White-Maned Horses”, the musician became especially popular. Many versions are made in the style of the rock band Rammstein, which sounds especially interesting. Of the musician’s creations, the most notable songs are: “Why am I an idiot?”, “Lenin sent everyone to May Day”, as well as a composition from the newest album “As a rule - without rules!” Called “Gray-yellow spring”.

Alexander writes not only music, but also duplicates the voices of foreign actors in films and cartoons. It can be clearly heard in Monsters on Vacation and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
In 2004, Alexander Pushnoy decided to try himself as a leader, and the first experience was his activity in the program "Good Jokes", where Tatyana Lazareva and Mikhail Shats "ruled the ball". And in 2006, Sasha was very useful in his main specialty, since he began to conduct "Galileo" - a program about all sorts of interesting facts from the field of physics and chemistry.
Present
The frequent appearance on the air of famous television programs brought Alexander Pushniy long-awaited popularity, he became a welcome participant in various shows of the STS channel. He worked in projects such as “Who is Smarter than the Fifth Grader”, “Song of the Day”, “Always Cook” and many others. Moreover, Sasha successfully conducts various festivals and concerts, as well as solo projects as a musician. The albums of Alexander Pushnoy won the hearts of a wide audience, and on the account of the musician more than one tour in Russia and some neighboring countries.
Relatively little is known about the personal life of the musician, because he, like any normal person, does not flaunt it. Alexander Pushnoy has a wife named Tatyana, who for 20 years of marriage managed to give him three heroes: Dmitry (14 years old), Mikhail (9 years old) and Andrei (2 years).
