Monk-martyr Paty (in life Viacheslav Sigaylo), bassist. He was born on September 23,1974 in the town of Nickolayev, entered school and became a teacher. In his mature years he joined the group "The Empire of Fear". He loved hard music, mixed with the literature by Taras Shevchenko and a mix of different styles. Then he repented and entered the St. James college in Kiev.
Paty's biggest hobby is reading books. He has read lots of them and the process is continuing from day to day. Now Paty is fond of modeling out of clay, he makes funny toys and says that he has made a couple of them for selling.
Alexander Furinets, drummer Afluriy. He is likely to have been born in some dark districts of the town of Nickolayev. Before joining the DROZDY and participating in recording their last album, he used to play in all the groups appearing and trying to last till tomorrow. He also used to play with "The Empire": like Paty, he tried to scare everyone with Taras' figments. In his decent position he became the successor for Valery DROZD (Kovalenko), who initiated the name of the group. He played his instrument round the clock and almost drove us crazy, although he is very shy, normally.
Serega Processor, lead guitar. He was also born in the jungle of Nickolayev; he is the smaller among us, but he is strong. He, like Afluriy, used to play in all substantial "groups" of the same ranks. He felt that the life was wonderful having lived for some time with DROZDY - in the St. Paty's cell at Troyeschina. Only here, having looked into the stomach you will remember that your fridge is empty during all-consuming brothers night repast. Processor participated in the last recorded project and he played last ten concerts perfectly well.
There is another guitarist, his name is Zhenya (Eugeny Gorsky); he is young and very talented. Until recently he played in the group ;God's Father" but having heard DROZDY singing desided to come to Melitopol, where he got to know who we are in reality. He was the last group's attainment and he participated in the last"abscess" recording.
Slavic Marakin, we call him Slavian is our keyboard player and programmer. He has been playing with DROZDY since 1999. It was his participation that predetermined success for the "UFO"album. Slavian is 27, and he unlike all the other members of the team, has already taken care of his own nest and breed. His 2-year-old son Zhenechka even participated in recording - as a back engineer. Slavian himself was born in the town Volzhsky but later moved to Nikol State where he met a jazzman of the band "Forgotten Continent" and travelling around the streets of Kiev saw a famous face. In such a way he met his old friends and they say he is a Roman - because he is strong enough and loves to eat well.
Lekha Tsarikatiy, (his other nickname is Drozdetsky) - tries to sing and play solo-guitar, write lyrics and so on. He used to play in the band “Tortured Christ”. His dreadful ideas kill everyone and everything. He has never been a fan of any style. He tends to like everything extraordinary including his passion to philosophy.
That is why he tells, but not everyone, to listen to Chopin and to read Vochman Nee.
He is fond of toy fish and he has lots of them. He thinks that it would be good to work as a guard in a zoo when he is old. He came into "sekta harizmatov" (charisma sect); in September, 1994. In 1996, he successfully graduated from a secret semminarium in Moscow which helped him become disappointed with "religion" and modern "sects of praise".
The group has released four albums
:
"Children festival" (1997),
"Non-existent as existent" (1998), solo album by Drozdetsky,
"Unidentified object" (1999-2000),
"CROWD" (2000/2), released to the band's third anniversary.
Now DROZDY are planning to record an acustic project with a famous musician and composer Paul Torson. During the last year, the band has taken part in more than 50 concerts and toured around 35 cities of Ukraine. They have also played concerts in Moscow and Belorus.
