Sergey Sukhachev performs hits in the style of chanson.
Chanson is a collective term used to denote various genres of Russian music: thug song, urban romance, military, emigrant and some pop songs. In the Russian music industry, the term "Russian chanson" was introduced as a euphemism in the 1990s, when the thug song began to sound on stage, on radio and television and popularized by the radio station of the same name. Thus, the concept of Russian chanson fall quite different from each other performers - from Peter Leshchenko, Mikhail Shufutinsky and Arkady Severny to Claudia Shulzhenko and Mark Bernes-why this term is controversial and not all accepted.
