 Petr Nikolayevich Mamonov is a Russian rock musician, songwriter and actor, frontman of the Moscow band Zvuki Mu. Mamonov was one of the few rock musicians from former USSR who managed to achieve recognition abroad, through his collaboration with Brian Eno in the late 1980s. Around the same period he started acting in films, and over the next decade wrote, produced and acted in several one-man theatrical performances establishing himself as a cult figure in Russia. In 1995, leaving behind over-the-top pleasures of “shaking-the-stage” life, Mamonov secluded himself from society in the Moscow neighbourhood forests and settled in his wooden house somewhere near Vereya town to bother with about two dozens of cats and read Holy Writ. Sometimes he comes back to sing new songs and present his one-man show to the Moscow aesthetes. His concerts combining songs, monologues and theatre actions, are fascinatedly thrilling: kind of funny, kind of shocking with shivers down the spine and one pulsing thought - Genius!
