Blame the name.
Not so long ago, Stas Peha shocked his fans, saying that she is not going to sing pop songs.
The singer said that the music changes with the times and stay in one genre of the past years at least unwise.
“Everything is changing. The new iPhones come out, movies, and music. It may not be the same as 10 years ago. Weird. We dress up in there clothes in the style of a concept, talking on the seventh iPhones and sing the music of the 90s. It’s not logical. We just tried for the last 2 years to fully modify the entire musical concept and play what we really like. Or something that already exists, but in those treatments in which we like. To make any installations. That is, for all this to go outside the box. Sister installations was doing her job. I fully directed entire music program. Very many tracks there done. And the old songs have turned into psychedelic indie-rock ballad,“ says Stas Peha.
Even the name of the concert of Allegory, which the singer has brought to Petersburg, is a subtext. It is a hint of the impulse to the changes in the genre and further development. Separately from inherited great names, which is associated exclusively with the stage. As you know, with him for several decades of years by the grandmother of Stas Edita. And the audience could not help comparing the young artist with national artist, although, according to the singer, they are completely different.
“There is a reality such that the name of my Peha. This is kind of a very epoch-making component, which is very hard to get rid of, because they know that Edita is the artist who sings pop genre for over 60 years. And with that name to sing some sort of fashionable, current, British music is very difficult. People filtered through the image. We slowly and gradually move in the wrong direction like that, and that’s exactly It… we in Russia like to say: you rock play, and you pop. And I don’t want to be an artist of one genre. For example, Stas Peha is a romantic, the knight of the sorrowful countenance. It’s not true. I am absolutely not sad. And certainly not a knight. Partly romantic,“ admits the artist.
According to Stas, in our time, a specific genre affiliation is perceived as archaic, since all genres have long mingled among themselves. Now it’s important to do what you like, this will be the main criterion. Sometimes the singer invites friends to their rehearsal, so they appreciated the new music.
