Lisa Hegai. "Without you"

Singer Lisa Hegay, the daughter of a military and accompanist, spent her childhood in Tashkent and Jambul, lived in London and Zurich, listened to Portishead and Bjork, dreamed of studying at the Moscow Conservatory. In a word, I visited very different worlds. Perhaps that is why its debut album “Many Beautiful” , on which the sound producers Alexander Andreev (“GDR”), Alexander Vasiliev (Redukt) and Sergey Andronov worked too diverse to leave a strong impression. As if you are listening to an eclectic playlist of one very romantic and many traveling person: a little Bristol trip-hop, then Chopin's nokthurna, and at the end-the singer Christmas tree. However, such a Russian-speaking indie, made with an eye on European fashion, we have a clear lack, so we are looking forward to the singer’s new songs, but for now we offer to see the newly emerging video for the best song with “Many Beautiful”:

Lisa Hegay about herself

Love and music - I have been living with this all my life. At five, they gave me a violin and said: "Here you are, girl, play." At this age, it is difficult to understand why this, but I am grateful to my mother. I can’t imagine myself in the industry that does not in contact with music. At first I don’t remember how it was ... that is, I remember, of course, but it was quite dull: seven years of music school, then four years in a music school. In my fourth year, I had another dream: to study at the Moscow Conservatory. I was engaged like crazy! Violin, notes, glasses, calluses, blood, tears, sweat. I locked myself in the classroom, no one knew where I am, what I am. I arrived in Moscow and ... I never entered the conservatory. I remember the phrase "your tool is like a piggy bank, it will fall apart where you came." And I have a violin from my grandfather, old-fraud, all in cracks, but dear to me. There is such a sound in it, nowhere is there such a sound! Well, I got out of there.

About the song

I am afraid to lose relatives, beloved people. About this thin thread and written "without you." I believe that all the phrases about love known to us every day need to tell us every day, I believe in their importance and need. Protect those nearby.

About the director

Natasha Sukhova, the director of the clip, met on my way not by chance. Well, it happens: it seems to be strangers, but relatives. In spirit, in mood, in perception. I am very grateful to her. He says: Hello, I want to take you to the field when there will be a lot of snow. You only need to come and be in a coat. In the first winter, I did not succeed, the next winter came, again a call with the same request - about a coat.

Natalia Sukhova, director, about the video "Without you"

The image of a lonely heroine arose in my head, wandering like a real but sterile, empty world (hence the idea to shoot in winter), which is parallel in a closed dark space. The farther, the more the reality around the heroine is called into question. The song itself prompted a further plot: noise, interference - and for a moment you can catch the male image. At a meeting, they disappear together ...
