Klyaver Denis Ilyich - a brief biography

Born to April 1975 in Leningrad in the family of artists. Son of famous pop actor Ilya Oleinikova
Since childhood, Denis Klyaver began to engage in music. In 1996 he graduated from St. Petersburg Musical College named after M.P. Mussorgsky in the class of pipes. During service in the army, Denis Klyaver played in the military orchestra.

The popularity of Denis Klyavaru came during a speech in the group "Tea together", in which he sang together with. Despite the popularity of the group, after 18 years, everyone decided to do a solo career.

Denis Klyaver is fond of bodybuilding and acrobatics, alkaline skiing.

With his wife Irinoi, the singer met by chance in the bank when I made a credit card. The girl immediately smeared him in the soul.

The singer is very proud of his father Ilya Oleinikov. After all, he was not only an excellent actor, but also a family man. In marriage with Irina Viktorovna, he lived 39 years old and even took her surname as a creative pseudonym.

Denis, you presented the album "Love lives three years?", Over which they worked for several years. Why is such a name, have you been disappointed in the longevity of feelings?

Name with a question mark. In this small icon and is the meaning of the album. All songs are the opportunities to correct what is lost. Maybe someone, having listened to my songs, will make conclusions for yourself and will understand that love lives as much as two people are interested in it.

Three years - this is a cynically derived by one writer of the formula (the singer has in mind the writer Frederick Begmedra and his novel "Love lives three years.") I quote. I think that my songs will help many to keep love.

- Spouse Denis Klyaver - Irina helps you with advice in creativity?

Of course, my wife is a close friend for me and a person to whom I listen. But just her advice, regardless of whether I agree with them or not, for me is not authoritative. Ira often asks why I ask her advice at all, if I do it in my own way. It's hard for me to explain it. (Laughs.)

- You somehow called ourselves the soul. Irina limit in the family budget?

Of course, I was joking, although I am that Kurkul - an economic man and carry everything into the house. Irina respects this.

That she is a wife to understand where to spend money, but where not. Recently, the financial situation in the country has complicated, and I am pleased that the wife understands that there are things more important than Tsatsek and gifts, which, of course, are present. After all, I'm not greedy! God forbid! I can gladly pamper your favorite and kids. And my last time. I love to give more than getting.

You somehow said that Irina conquered Denis Klyaver his selflessness. Have some checks suit her?

I am intuitively never mistaken in people, and when we met Irisha, I immediately understood that she was my man. The main verification was that we got married only four years of our relationship. Irina is a very beautiful woman and could conquer any man if she wanted. And they could give her more serious gifts or star status. But she is absolutely disinterested.

Denis Klyaver with Irina will grow up with the son of Daniel, from the first marriage there is a son Timofey, and gave you a daughter. Do children communicate with each other?

They communicate perfectly among themselves. Just wonderful! I am generally very lucky in this love octagon, if you take into account the children. I am grateful to their moms for the fact that our family reigns such a warm atmosphere.

- What is the role of Denis Klyaver takes in the raising of children?

I am a real loving father, although I can not pay for the children as much time as I would like. My eldest son Timofey, who is 15 years, even sometimes hesitates my loving statements. I am very affectionate, but at the same time a fair and even strict father. We have a simple contract: if I said "do", then you need to do. I, for my part, because I am an example, everything I promise, I also perform.

- Some of the children have already decided to go on your footsteps?

So far, in some com, I see a zeal for music, although they are all very musical. It is still difficult to judge the youngest, but a daughter is definitely creative nature. She fascinated and sometimes wants to do everything at the same time. Timokha (senior) is more in itself. In this, he looks like my father. I have a dream to become an actor as his grandfather. And it seems he shares my wishes.

- Denis Klyaver often remembers his dad Ilya Oleinikov?

Yes. I have a lot of memories related to your father? I loved him and love! Our conversation was not particularly remembered for two to his care. We saw little to see so straight and alone. He loved the presence of a person, but it was always difficult to support the dialogue with him. And here we somehow drove in the car on the way from Peter to Moscow and all eight hours we told. I will never forget it!

Musician and businessman, soloist team "Tea together". The Son of the People's Artist of the Russian Federation Ilya Oleikov, known to us in the humorous TV show "Town" and was one of its creators.

Involuntarily, the idea that "Klyaver" is probably a fictional last name, but it is not. Ilya Klyaver decided to use the name of his wife Irina Oleinikova as a scenic pseudonym, and she, in turn, took his last name after the wedding.

Denis was born on April 6, 1975 in Leningrad. In the family of Klyaverov loved songs, humor. Irina, though he worked as a chemist-technologist, but during his youth seriously engaged in vocals, so the boy was in love with music since childhood. The career of the future singer does not seem random choice or spontaneity, because it started in a music school, but continued in the music school. Mussorgsky and Conservatory them. N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov (1996). Even during the service in the army, he did not part with the music and played in the military orchestra.

Despite the fact that future soloists "" met accidentally, they still immediately understood the need for their further cooperation, and in 1994 Denis Klyaver and Stas Kostyushkin decided to create a star blowing. Glory did not come to guys for a long time. Their path to her top began with speeches on tour Mikhail Shufutinsky, where they performed on heating. It was then that "Tea together" for the first time earned their first fee, which was soon spent on the shooting of a debut video clip.

However, the truly luck smiled only when they noticed Lyme Vaikule and invited to cooperate. Work with her lasts about 2 years, and presented with young performers with invaluable experience and understanding, how to make a real show from his speech. For the entire existence of the Duet "Tea together" Denis Klyaver and Stas Kostyushkin became the authors of more than 100 songs, shot 7 video clips, released 9 albums and discouraged the love of millions of fans.

In their account there are a large number of awards, such as the Golden Gramophone, Beat Hit, etc., and the songs became hunters.

Denis Klyaver is married to Irina Fedotova. This is the third marriage of the singer, since the first two were not happy. Denis has two children: the son of Timofey (from the second marriage) and daughter Evelyn (mother's mother - singer Eva Polna). Eva for a long time hid the paternity of Denis, while he impaired himself.

Denis is not only a musician, but also a businessman. Along with his wife, Irina, he took up business, developing a brand "Desperadoes Dogs" (accessories and clothing for small dogs). The singer tried himself as an actor, starring in comedy films Thai Voyage Stepanycha "and" Spanish Voyage Stepanycha ", as well as in Kameo in the series" My beautiful nanny "," happy together ". On television, Denis Klyaver participated in the projects "Circus with the Stars", "Fort Boyard" and "Two Stars".

At this time, Denis Klyaver began working on the solo project and in 2013 released his first album "Not like that." There is in it and joint work with Eva Polna ("Festing").

Interesting remains the fact that there are no confirmation that the project "Tea together is missing is missing, so despite the solo career, Denis Klyaver continues to remain a member of this duet, continuing to conquer the love of the public and increase the multi-million army of his fans.

The musician told how raising his children.

Denis Klyaver has three children. With his wife Irina, he brings up Daniel, who will be 5 years in September. In addition, the musician has a son and daughter from previous relations: 16-year-old Timofey and 13-year-old Evelin. Children dad adore, and he cannot live without them. I even dedicated to them.

"My paternity has always been conscious"

- After your song about the attitude of fathers and children "When you become a big" women share with you in instagram very personal stories. One young mother writes: "I hope my father will hear the song and wants to see the Son." Have expected such a reaction?

"I wrote this song after argued with the eldest son in one day, then with the younger, and then with my daughter. It happened. Talked for different topics, because children of different ages. By the evening, a thought suddenly came: I spent so many nerves and strength, and what if you try to get to children in a different way? And I wrote a song, putting emotions and thoughts at three minutes. I am glad that I get so many responses. For me, children are the most important thing in life.

- You can be put as an example to other fathers. You participate in the upbringing of all your children, sowing to keep wonderful relations with their moms.

- For me, such behavior is completely logical and the only possible.

- Many fathers forget about children or are limited to alimony.

more on the topic

- The fact that I am such a merit of my parents are their genes and upbringing. Yes, it so happened that three different moms have three different moms. Sometimes even at concerts, good joke on this topic: "I am very responsibly going to raise the children: I tried to make every child a maximum of attention, therefore each child has his own mother." It happens that you meet your second half and you stay together for the rest of your life. And it happens that you met a woman, and your mission with her is the emergence of a new person. I do not understand how you can not participate in the life of the child. This is absurd. The son or daughter is not to blame for the fact that parents could not build a relationship. You can destroy everything elementary - the main thing, wanted. I communicate perfectly not only with children, but also with their moms. I see their attitude towards children, and they understand my actions, most importantly in life for me - raising children. The task of parents is to be producers: to identify talent in a child, and then send it to the right direction, to ensure the conditions for the development of these abilities.

- Where did you send older Timothy?

"He, he has a second one." He is engaged in four years.

- Papino desire was to give the Son in Sport?

- mutual with his mom: Julia Professional gymnast- "artist", dancer. I supported, motivated, financed, and Mom Timoshin from four years old almost all the time next to him. A lot had to ride the competition. The victories of the Son - 80% of Mom's merit. Julia and I raised a man who was accustomed to the difficulties that understands that in life you need to fight, work. That's cool.

- Timofey moved to the 11th grade. Discussing your son's choice with your son?

- Sure. We have long started talking on this topic. I do not press my son. Timofey is a very strong person, like all my children. Sport has formed a male character in it. He himself decided that he wanted to serve after school in the army. Not a question, approve. A year will not solve anything. And then - a creative path. We plan that Timosh will come to the theater Institute. I will not take it, but it is very organic.

- The genes make themselves felt?

- Yes, the eldest son is Ilyusha grandfather in a psychotica, in its inner content. He seems to be so modest in life, but as soon as it is necessary to make a decision, show the result in the ring, can concentrate and show the result. This is an important skill for the scene. I see that Timofey creative guy.

- You have often consulted with parents at your 16-17 years?

- Then there were no such means of communication as now. My son and We are in touch every day: we speak by phone or skype. Constantly exchange funny pictures, gags. It is important that Timosha sees - we have the same sense of humor: I try to understand young people, and he is me. It is a pity that I could not communicate with my father so often. Dad was more radical in matters of education compared to me. If he said: "This is bad, I don't like it," it means that it is useless to negotiate. But with my mother, we have always been on the short leg, she even included fashionable words in his speech, which I brought from school. It impressed me very much.

Of course, there are fundamental points in the upbringing that concern decency responsibility. Here the compromises can not be - it is necessary to clearly designate the boundaries of the pervolored. But I will never impose your opinion in matters of tastechnya to the child. He wants to trim - yes for God's sake. Wants to wear strange clothes - please! A person is looking for himself, tries at this age.

- In the army of you parents easily let go?

- They are for military service and sent me. I studied in a music school, we did not have a military department. When the agenda came, I was 99% sure that I would not go to the army. But dad insisted - it is necessary to serve. Mom supported because she had a daughter officer. I was not extinguished, but still youthful breaking in behavior was present. And the army became a rehearsal before adult life - I was taught by discipline and responsibility.

- Well, a daughter, probably closer to mom? Evelin with dad does not frank?

- Naturally, she is closer to mom. But I and my daughter communicate perfectly. Evelysh is the most creative of all my children by nature. She takes everything close to heart, analyzes - very emotional.

- She's 13 - transitional age ...

- Timokha This age was calm. Evelinka sometimes happens to the hedgehog, but rarely and not carefully. Special thanks to Eva (Mama Evelin - Singer Eva Polna. - Aut.) For this happiness: to be a girl's father is such a specific space.

- The younger Daniel was born when you were 38. Fathers felt in adulthood otherwise than in young years?

- Firstborn Timofey me appeared in 27. It was already a conscious age. In general, I always treated for children. But Dani has an older brother. Timak well done! And he donates with his brother with pleasure, and talks. Dane is already almost 5, he is just a little hurricane. I try to spend more time with it. Neither the eldest son, nor daughter in childhood I have not seen so often. Now I understand how the time flies quickly when the child is small. Therefore, if possible, I cancel the case and rush home.

- You have the opportunity to pamper children. How not to be spoiled?

- learned this to Timofee. The son was four years old, and for the new year it was tasked with toys. And now the next father's friend brought a huge car on the radio control: any boy from happiness from happiness, and Timoch the next day, even from the box did not take it. And Julia and I understood: you need to do something. We decided to close the game room for a month. They gave him a wooden pyramid, a nestling, coloring. At first, the son was dissatisfied, and then used. Such indicative lessons correctly affect the younger generation.

I bring up children so that they know - any gift needs to earn. His behavior is good. And it helps it very much. If the child received from the birth of Apad, the phone, then instead of the real world he has a virtual. My small does not have access to gadgets, the cartoons of Danya looks dosage - small portions. Since we live outside the city, gives me a sawn, and the grass mows. In his free time, he rides a bike, on a skate, and not reaches the gadgets. He knows and enjoys the real life, where people communicate with each other. Therefore, a virtual life will never prefer her.

- You brought up a whip or gingerbread? Parents pinched?

- I grew up in an ordinary family. Dad began to make money well for the year so in 1994. I am 19 years old by that time. And before that, income in our family was, perhaps, even below average, because the artist's profession is very inconstant. We lived very modestly, but I know what happiness is in the absence of money. And now, when he already earns well, providing family, children, I understand what moments must be appreciated in life. Real buzz I receive from communicating with children, wife, friends, from the birth of a song. Route and enjoy every minute spent with mom. Valid and enjoyed every minute with dad.

"Mom offended and never talked to me for two days"

- Adult artist whose approval and praise need? In addition to the recognition of the public.

- After recent filming of the clip on the song "When you become big" colleagues said: "Dan, you wrote a cool song!" For me, one of the highest praises from the respected colleagues. I had a lot of famous fathers in the clip, among them Dmitry Malikov, Stasik Pieha, Edgard smelled, Oscar Couteron.

- You are busy with solo creativity for six years. But until now, the people associate you with the group "Tea together". Not hurt?

- Fean God! Of course, not offended. All that we did with Stas in almost 17 years of the existence of the group "Tea together" was from the soul and sincerely. It is very nice that our songs are now sounding on the radio.

- And they know them by heart.

- Often, when I work at weddings, the younger generation will first look at me as on a very adult uncle. And when I start singing, then everyone suddenly starts singing. For me, it is funny that the songs of "Tea together" continue creative life. I did not have any disappointments, surprises about the fact that people could not maximize me from the duet. Now a long time has passed, but still me will always be associated with this duet. Now I am preparing a new solo concert, in which the songs I wrote over the past few years. All of them are very close to me - they wrote from the soul.

- Your father Ilya Oleinikov wrote for the group "Tea together". For example, the song "Misel". At your request?

- Dad was a stunning composer. Incredibly cool! He put the fantastic musical "Prophet" - very soon we will make it remake. I, as a composer, was very zealously related to any encroachments on its territory. But the same father! I respected my dad and loved, and he could be all. Although it seemed to me that the song "Blizzard" in those years was a little adult for us. But the song is stunning! Very beautiful and deep. Just matured, I can sing it as it should sound.

- Ilya Lvovich was an excellent dramatic artist. And the people loved him for images in the "town". He was not offended because of this?
