The lead singer of Carla's Dreams told why he hides his face. Lead singer of Carla's Dreams: I'm ugly to nausea, so I hide my face
The sensational hit Sub Pilea Mea - Eroina of the Carla's Dreams group has been occupying the first lines of the main European charts for seven months now. The Moldovan collective has rapidly burst into the world show business not only thanks to its memorable repertoire, but also due to its unusual image. In public, musicians always appear with painted faces in dark glasses and hoods. In the foreign press, the group has long been called a phenomenon - no one knows what its members look like and what their names are. V exclusive interview To Life, the band's soloist spoke about how the musical project was created and why its members are forced to hide their faces.
Is this your first time in Moscow?
Yes, this is my first time in Moscow with a part of my band. We came for three days - just to scout out the situation. I haven’t had time to go anywhere yet. True, some guys were in a club yesterday. But I didn't go - I had to get enough sleep, before the flight I spent the whole night in the studio, so I absolutely had no desire to go anywhere, despite the fact that I was in Moscow for the first time.
The band is called Carla's Dreams, so who is Carla?
While the project exists, I will not tell you whether it was named after some girl or not. I can only say that in the novel by John Le Carré there was such a character of Karl - a spy about whom practically nothing was known. This fits perfectly with our project.
Have you started painting your face from the very beginning of the project?
The idea was ours, and it is absolutely not new. There was just a problem, and it was necessary to solve it. The problem was that we didn't want public life. We are not interested in social life and show business hangouts. It was originally an internet project. There was absolutely no communication with the press. Even when the project grew and became popular. Then there was an urgent need to do at least one concert. There was a problem: I didn't want to go out the way I am. Of course, I would like to brag that I am such a good marketer, but I am not. I am aware that now it looks exactly like a competent PR move, if someone thinks that I am so smart, this is just a plus for me.
It is rumored that you are hiding your face due to skin problems.
Yes, I confirm that I look very bad. I'm ugly to nausea, that's why I'm hiding. I just don't want to spoil people's mood. But, seriously, everything is fine with my health, including my skin.
For privacy reasons, does the same make-up artist wear you every time?
We make up ourselves. For four years we have already learned how to put on their own makeup. The make-up artist comes only when we need more complex makeup, for example, latex. This is when the shape of the cheekbones changes, but these are already perversions, but sometimes we resort to them. Just because we want it so much, it's cool to change your appearance.
There are always different numbers of people on the stage, how many members does your band have?
We are not a band, we are a project. There are more than two dozen of us. The project has both a musical component and several others, which I will not talk about, but it unites a circle of people. These people are not in the same country, since we have been living in the 21st century for 16 years, many things can be done remotely. Therefore, no one needs to fly from Kiev to Bucharest or from Chisinau to Kiev to think of something, write or just talk. Fortunately, we have the Internet. At concerts, the musicians are usually different. There may be 8 of us - this is the maximum, and 5, and 6, and even 3. Depends on the venue and concerts. These people are absolutely impersonal, there is no such thing that this particular drummer or this particular guitarist is performing. The vocalist, unfortunately, does not change, yes - it is technically difficult to do it.
During the existence of the group, many outside people have worked with you, how do you keep track of information leaks?
It is impossible to completely eliminate information leakage. There are at least three pieces of news in Moldova that I know, and it's a lot of fun. In the press they called me as soon as possible: Andrei, and Roma, and Sergei. It is very difficult to prove your identity. We have to try very hard, I haven’t met such people yet. In addition, there is a legal component - the disclosure of information will be expensive. Even obscenely expensive. Plus we choose people who see things the same way we do. There is one more thing that I am proud of - that the audience in Moldova and Romania is boycotting news that begins with the words “we have found out the identity of the Carla’s Dreams soloist”. People post such news, and are immediately banned, and the publications distributing this news have a lot of haters. The public itself does not want to know who we are. Therefore, journalists lose interest, as there is no demand for this news.
But it turns out that these are double standards?
I agree. I believe, and most people think so, that the truth is somewhere in between. The more relatively you look at things, the calmer and easier it is for you to live. Well, yes, it happens this way and that: both ours and yours.
Foreign journalists claim that you former member Moldovan group In Quadro, produced by Alexander Russo. What can you say about this?
I know both Alexander Russo and Ivan Lazolvan - this is a member of this group. The fact is that a couple of years ago there was news that I am former soloist or a member of this team. One of the members of the In Quadro group - Andrey - actually worked with us in a certain plane. Somehow journalists called him and asked about it, he answered them something unintelligible, and the news appeared. Therefore, they take me for Andrey. I declare responsibly that it is not! I have never been a member of the In Quadro group and have nothing to do with it.
How do you know Russian so well?
Some people think that I have relatives in Russia. I have no Russian roots. I and some of the guys come from Chisinau, and there are enough most of population speaks Russian well. Plus, before the collapse of the USSR, your language was our state language. Well, plus the influence of the media from Russia also played a role. Now in the project there are some guys from Romania, some from Ukraine, and now, perhaps, I will also take from Russia.
You will have a release one of these days new song, tell us about it.
Well, the song is so-so. No, in fact, she's very cool. The idea is beautiful. The song will be called "Triangle" or "Triangles", we haven't decided yet. But the video has already been invented: from a moral point of view, it will be very difficult for the viewer to determine who he is for. Everyone is right.
Carla "s Dreams- a musical project in the Republic of Moldova.
Founded in 2012 in Chisinau, the troupe consists of a group of anonymous vocalists and songwriters, young people who generally don't even know each other. The group members say they have no intention of disclosing the number and names of the group's members. They also claim to be non-professionals, amateurs with no specialization in music. The voices are genuine, not processed, although from time to time the guys experiment. They usually sing in Moldavian, Russian and English... Carla's Dreams combines several musical styles: hip-hop, jazz, rock and pop, etc.
The band members themselves raised the veil of secrecy on the name of the project Carla's Dreams, it comes from the name of the male character in the novels of John le Carré. Original name character - Karla. In addition, the word "Karla" is an acronym, the decryption of which the members of the project promise to make public one day.
Since its foundation in 2012, no one has seen their true colors. The lead singer, as well as the rest of Carla's Dreams, sing with painted faces, glasses and hoods on their heads. It's their choice, because in the end all that matters is music, lyrics. Initially, anonymity was not seen as a way to gain popularity, but as soon as it happened, they considered it marketing strategy... The group members are of the opinion that in to a large extent, it frees them from the stress of public life.
However, the real paparazzi did not calm down until they found out the identity of the soloist, he turned out to be - Andrei Tserush, a former member of the group "In Quadro", was born on October 25, 1984 in the city of Slobozia, Republic of Moldova. He has achieved success by launching real hits with Inna, Loredana Groza and Delia. He graduated from the Faculty of Public Law in Chisinau.
Carla's first play "s Dreams" was "Dă-te" ("Get out"). In March 2013, the group shot a video for the song "P.O.H.U.I" in collaboration with the performer from Romania Inna, changing it slightly. The group differs from other local performers, as it uses personalized slang, lyrics about realities Everyday life, as well as the fact that it uses several musical styles.
They released their first album in in electronic format... The first video clip was made in collaboration with Dara. In 2013 Carla "s Dreams launched their project in Romania, in collaboration with Inna, the play" POHUI ", and then sang with Loredana" My World ", and with Delia they released the plays:" Cum ne noi "and" Da, mamă "and etc.
Group members wonderful plans for the future, fame is not a value for them in and of itself. They are interested in the evolution and popularity of the project, and they work for this purpose, without music theory, doing what they like.
Recently they were named "the most beloved among anonymous authors", the assessment of the merits of their joint efforts to convey to listeners and viewers from the stage important questions everyday life in an appropriate musical format.

The lead singer of Carla's Dreams denies this, although he notes that Andrei worked with them for some time. In his interview, the lead singer of Carla’s Dreams said: “ I have never been a member of In Quadro and have nothing to do with it " .

Excerpt from Carla's Dreams
“Because I know it won't end with anything.- Why do you know? No, Mom, you don't tell him. What nonsense! - Natasha said in the tone of a man from whom they want to take away his property.
“Well, I’m not getting married, so let him go, if he’s having fun and I’m having fun.” - Natasha, smiling, looked at her mother.
“Not married, but so,” she repeated.
- How is it, my friend?
- Yes, so. Well, it is very necessary that I will not marry, but ... so.
- So, so, - repeated the countess and, shaking with all her body, laughed a kind, unexpected old woman's laugh.
- Completely laugh, stop, - Natasha cried, - you shake the whole bed. You look terribly like me, the same giggle ... Wait ... - She grabbed both hands of the Countess, kissed her little finger on one bone - June, and continued kissing July, August on the other hand. - Mom, is he very much in love? How are your eyes? Were you so in love? And very nice, very, very nice! Only not quite to my taste - it is narrow, like a dining room clock ... Don't you understand? ... Narrow, you know, gray, light ...
- What are you lying! Said the countess.
Natasha continued:
- Do you really not understand? Nikolenka would have understood ... Earless - that blue, dark blue with red, and it is quadrangular.
“You’re flirting with him too,” the Countess said, laughing.
- No, he is a Freemason, I found out. It's nice, dark blue with red, how can you explain ...
“Countess,” came the count’s voice from behind the door. - Are you awake? - Natasha jumped up barefoot, grabbed her shoes and ran to her room.
She could not sleep for a long time. She kept thinking that no one can understand everything that she understands and what is in her.
"Sonya?" she thought, looking at the sleeping, curled up kitty with her huge braid. “No, where is she! She is virtuous. She fell in love with Nikolenka and doesn't want to know anything else. Mom, she doesn't understand either. It's amazing how smart I am and how ... she is cute, "she continued, speaking to herself in the third person and imagining that this is being said about her by some very intelligent, the most intelligent and good man… “Everything, everything in her,” the man continued, “is unusually smart, sweet and then good, unusually good, dexterous — she swims, rides well, and her voice! You can say amazing voice! " She sang her favorite musical phrase from the Cherubin's opera, threw herself on the bed, laughed at the joyful thought that she would fall asleep now, shouted to Dunyasha to put out the candle, and before Dunyasha had time to leave the room, she had already passed into another, even happier world of dreams where everything was as easy and beautiful as in reality, but it was only even better, because it was different.
The next day the Countess, having invited Boris to her place, talked to him, and from that day on he stopped visiting the Rostovs.
On the 31st of December, on the eve of the new year 1810, le reveillon [night supper], there was a ball at the Catherine's grandee. The ball was supposed to be a diplomatic corps and a sovereign.
On the Promenade des Anglais, the famous house of the nobleman shone with countless illumination lights. At the lighted entrance with a red cloth stood the police, and not only gendarmes, but a police chief at the entrance and dozens of police officers. The carriages drove away, and new ones arrived, with red footmen and footmen in feathers on their hats. Men in uniforms, stars and ribbons emerged from the carriages; the ladies in satin and ermines cautiously stepped down the noisy steps, and hurriedly and soundlessly walked along the cloth of the entrance.
Almost every time a new carriage arrived, there was a whisper in the crowd and hats were taken off.
- Sovereign? ... No, minister ... prince ... envoy ... Can't you see the feathers? ... - said from the crowd. One of the crowd, dressed better than the others, seemed to know everyone, and called by name the noblest nobles of that time.
Already one third of the guests had arrived at this ball, and the Rostovs, who were supposed to be at this ball, were still hastily preparing for dressing.
There was a lot of talk and preparations for this ball in the Rostov family, many fears that the invitation would not be received, the dress would not be ready, and everything would not be arranged as it was needed.
Together with the Rostovs went to the ball Marya Ignatievna Peronskaya, a friend and relative of the countess, a thin and yellow maid of honor of the old court, leading the provincial Rostovs in the highest Petersburg society.
At 10 o'clock in the evening the Rostovs were supposed to pick up the maid of honor at the Tauride Garden; and meanwhile it was already five minutes to ten, and the young ladies were not yet dressed.
Natasha went to the first big ball In my life. She got up that day at 8 o'clock in the morning and was in feverish anxiety and activity all day. All her forces, from the very morning, were directed to ensure that they all: she, mother, Sonya were dressed as best as possible. Sonya and the Countess vouched completely to her. The countess was supposed to be wearing a masaka velvet dress, they were wearing two white smoky dresses on pink, silk covers with roses in a bodice. The hair had to be combed a la grecque [in Greek].

How will the life of the band change if your names are declassified?
If someone wants to hurt us, well, that's their business. This will create great social inconvenience. It will change your lifestyle. I also don’t want to be known because it’s expensive to be famous. I do not want to buy myself fashionable clothes and walk on secular parties... Secular life presupposes certain standards: how should I dress, where should I go and who should I smile at. I don’t want to smile at anyone just because it’s good for business or it’s ugly not to smile.
But it turns out that these are double standards?
