According to socialbites.ca, Alexey Glyzin, a well known Russian artist, is facing financial setbacks connected to his music management business. The report shows that Glyzin Showtur LLC brought in roughly 14.9 million rubles in revenue for 2023, yet the year ended with negative profits, marking losses near 1.7 million rubles. The figures underscore a year of challenges for the enterprise behind a prominent performer who remains a persistent figure in the country’s musical landscape.
Glyzin began his musical journey in the 1970s with the pop ensemble VIA Good Fellows and later performed with several groups before establishing his solo career in 1988. His work earned him national recognition, including the title of Honored Artist of Russia in 2006 and, in 2017, the Chanson of the Year award, which highlighted his enduring contribution to the Russian chanson tradition. These honors reflect a career that spanned decades and placed him among the notable voices in Russian popular music, resonating with audiences in Canada and the United States as part of the broader Russian-speaking music scene abroad.
In January, Glyzin spoke about his youth on tour and the personal choices that shaped his early years. He acknowledged past indulgences and admitted flirting with younger fans during the initial stages of his touring life. He attributed these actions as a factor in the dissolution of his marriage to his first wife, Lyudmila. He stressed that such behavior would not be repeated today and noted that at the outset of his touring years he was already married to gymnast Sania Babiy, a relationship that would later become a long-standing partnership in his life.
Glyzin explained that his conduct during those years led Babiy to file for divorce, a consequence he describes as a turning point. He says that only after those events did he realize the futility of certain choices and the way they affected his personal life. He asserts that he subsequently reoriented his lifestyle in order to honor the relationship with Babiy, whom he now regards as a central partner for more than three decades. The couple has weathered the ups and downs of public life together, maintaining a presence in the cultural conversation even as their personal story evolved over time.
Earlier in his career, singer Islam Itlyashev faced debts to the Federal Tax Service, a reminder that members of the music community sometimes navigate financial obligations alongside artistic pursuits. The broader narrative around Glyzin and his contemporaries reflects not just the glamour of the stage but the financial and personal pressures that accompany a long-running career in the arts.
