Andro Kuznetsov draws his inspiration from a strong artistic lineage: his sister is a dancer and his mother taught him to value a sense of sartorial style. But it was the Roma singer’s grandfather who sparked his desire to make music. Between developing a fashion brand and dipping into visual art projects, he has climbed Russia’s streaming charts with his evocative take on introspective alt-pop. Drawing on a blend of crisp R&B percussion and Arabic-inspired instrumentation, all anchored by his velvet-smooth vocals, Andro flits between genres on the edge of pop’s global frontier.
