Born in Belarus in 1983, baritone Andrei Lugovski participated in several singing competitions as a youngster before he moved to Ostend, Belgium with his family in 1999. In 2007, he finished third behind Esther Sels and Dean Delannoit in the third series of TV talent show Idool, and released his debut album, My World, two years later. Inspired by musical hero Andrea Bocelli, his 2010 follow-up, Passione, saw him tackle the Neapolitan classics. In 2012, he recorded a collaboration with pianist Richard Clayderman for his third studio effort, Incanto. ~ Jon O'Brien, Rovi
