Childhood and youth
Zhenya was an active child, showed great interest in musical instruments, and by the age of 12 he mastered playing the drums. To learn how to read music, the boy began attending music school, where he quickly lost interest in the boring lessons.
After graduating from school, Evgeniy becomes a student at the Institute of Culture. There Osin chose the faculty of directing and amateur performances, hoping to acquire the knowledge necessary to express his creative nature. Evgeniy quickly got tired of his studies, and Osin left the institute before graduating.
Upon leaving the university, he received a certificate on the basis of which he could lead an amateur ensemble. Evgeniy's student years were accompanied by a passion - breeding pigeons. Osin even created a miniature dovecote within the walls of his balcony, dreaming of more space for his pets.
Finding myself
Since childhood, Evgeny Osipov was sure that his life’s calling was music. At a young age he became a member of a musical group. His creative path passed through many groups. In 1978, as a 22-year-old boy, Evgeniy created his own team, which was called “Keks”.

The young man played guitar in a group, performed solo parts, while simultaneously developing his songwriting skills. The team did not last long, Eugene moved first to the Nicolaus Copernicus group, and then to the Alliance. Everywhere he mastered new musical instruments.
After 2 years, the young man received an invitation from Stas Namin, who supervises the Ded Moroz team, to become a member of the group. The work was stable and promising, but Osin’s life was shaken by an event that served as a huge impetus to a dizzying career.
Group "Bravo"
Evgeniy had the chance to become the vocalist of the mega-popular group “Bravo”. The team was left before the start of the tour by the extraordinary Zhanna Aguzarova, and the managers urgently needed to find a replacement. Osin's competitors in the fight for the position of frontman of the group were Sergei Krylov and Sergei Penkin. Composer Evgeniy Khavatan liked Evgeniy and was immediately accepted into the Bravo lineup.
Evgeny Osin’s creative biography in the group took a year, after which he was replaced by a charismatic vocalist, Valery Syutkin. But this period allowed Evgeniy to grow professionally so much that, leaving the team, he decided to become an independent artist.
Solo projects
The work of singer Osin stood out for its sincerity and found a good response from the public. The texts were simple and understandable to the listeners, although they were perceived as “not formatted.” Rhythmic rock and roll with yard lyrics brought Osin to the top of popularity, almost every recording became a hit.
The song “The Girl is Crying in the Machine” made the singer a favorite of millions.
In creative search
Also in 1986, Osin began actively collaborating with the Moscow Rock Laboratory, and some time later performing with two new groups - the groups “Nicholas Copernicus” and “Alliance”. However, in these ensembles Evgeny Osin no longer occupied such a significant place, permanently remaining in the supporting roles.

But the musician did not stay long in this group either. And a few months later he migrated to the group “Bravo,” which was popular at that time, which only recently left the leading soloist Zhanna Aguzarova.

The material recorded with Osin was never officially presented to the public, but clips with his participation can be found on the Internet. “Bravo” with Evgeny Osin, 1989 In the early 1990s, Evgeny Osin created his own musical group - the Avalon group. In this ensemble, the musician again took on all the most important functions, acting as a soloist, guitarist, and also the author of most of the songs. It is very noteworthy that the repertoire of this group consisted of songs written in a variety of genres, from jazz to hard rock. With this group, Evgeny Osin recorded and released the album “The Bright Path of Fire,” which was practically not noticed by the public.
Recognition and crisis of creativity
Evgeniy has released a total of 3 albums. Some of Osin's singles were released at one of the most popular studios, which was managed by Valery Zharov, a producer who recorded hits for the most popular stars of that time.
In support of Boris Yeltsin

Trapped by alcohol
Along with his popularity, Evgeniy’s alcohol addiction is growing. The singer does not let the problem take its course and is looking for ways to get rid of it. Osin goes through a long path of purification through monasteries, in which he finds a temporary refuge for spiritual growth and creativity.
These pilgrimages bore fruit - Osin not only found inner balance, but also met a mentor who guided him throughout his life. Evgeniy becomes a believer and organizes an Orthodox corner at home with a lamp and icons.

Personal life
His future wife, bank worker Natalya. Osin meets in the late 90s. The woman was already married at the time of the fateful meeting. But the feelings of the young people flared up with such force that, despite the condemnation of their relatives, they got married when Natalya divorced her first husband.
Agnia
The personal life of Evgeny Osipov was marked by something important - his daughter Agnia was born. The family was illuminated by baby talk in 2002, and Evgeniy turned the direction of his creativity towards children's poems and songs.
Osin showed himself to be a caring husband and father; he could often be seen with his family. But the dependence on alcohol gained more and more power, which is why relations with Natalya did not go well. After some time, the wife made a strong-willed decision to leave her husband, and did so, disappearing from the biography and personal life of the singer along with her daughter forever.
Evgeny Osin was having a hard time with the separation, especially missing his daughter. In an effort to prove his decency and serious attitude to give up a bad habit, the singer got a job at an English-language gymnasium, where he taught singing to children.
Within the walls of the educational institution, he organized the children’s vocal ensemble “Fishki” and recorded several songs and videos. However, no attempts to improve helped to return his ex-wife and his daughter’s affection. Having recovered a little from the divorce, Osin met another woman with whom he lived for about 5 years. But she also could not come to terms with alcoholic breakdowns and left the singer.

Despite the setbacks in his personal life, Evgeniy was able to focus on creativity. Having accepted girls into his team, he organized concerts at which he performed his outdated hits. Oddly enough, he managed to sell all the tickets to his performances and was willingly invited by other stars for duets.
During the period of the singer’s new creative blossoming, it becomes known about the existence of another daughter, Evgeniy, who was born before his marriage to Natalya. At the time of the marriage, the singer did not know about the existence of the child. His ex-girlfriend Elena reported that she gave birth to a daughter from him, several years after the breakup.

Singer Natalya Sturm decided to respond to the misfortune of the once popular performer and offered to personally treat him. She was afraid to give money, since almost everyone knew about Evgeniy’s problems with alcohol.
