Andrey Makarevich is a revered figure in the sphere of Russian rock music, best known as the founder and lead vocalist of the iconic rock band Mashina Vremeni (Time Machine), which emerged in the late 1960s and became one of the pioneers of rock music in the Soviet Union. Born on December 11, 1953, in Moscow, Makarevich's influence extends beyond just music; he is recognized as a poet, an artist, and a television personality, embodying the essence of a multi-talented and creative artist.

Aside from his work with Mashina Vremeni, which has consistently delivered a blend of rock, blues, and folk with thoughtful lyrics, Makarevich has explored other musical territories in his solo career. His diverse discography illustrates an adventurous and eclectic approach to music. Notable recent projects include "Идиш джаз, Часть 3" (Yiddish Jazz, Part 3), which showcases his journey into the rich and soulful world of Yiddish jazz, drawing from his Jewish heritage and his passion for jazz music. Makarevich's works like "Yo5" and his live performances, such as "Live at Laima Rendezvous," demonstrate his dynamism as a performer and his ability to engage audiences across various genres and settings. His reverence for songwriting is evident in albums like "Песни, которые я люблю" (Songs I Love) and his tribute to legendary Russian bard Bulat Okudzhava in "Песни Булата Окуджавы." As an artist, Makarevich's work stands as a testament to his longevity and his ability to evolve artistically while maintaining his signature style.
