Because of teasing from classmates, Boris withdrew and discovered his interest in music.

He made his first releases in 2006, the same year he had the first performance of his entire career.

At the Universo Paralello Festival in Brazil.

In the international foreign countries his music found fast approval.

Numerous gigs, for example South America and Russia, followed.
