Vasiliy Bondarchuk, born on October 7, 1984, in the city of Skvyra in the Kiev region, made a significant impact in the Ukrainian show business in 2007.
His fame came from Russian-language hits like "Serebrom," "Bomba," "Nezhnaya," and "Popolam," a duet with Irina Bilyk. Vasiliy Bondarchuk also competed twice for the chance to represent Ukraine in the international song contest "Eurovision" during the national selections in 2007 and 2012, but did not win.
After ending his collaboration with producer Yuriy Nikitin in 2009, Bondarchuk attempted to pursue his singing career with a new team, but his new songs did not achieve the same level of popularity.
