Mykola Mykolaiovych Bortnyk (Ukrainian: Микола Миколайович Бортник, born 8 March 1990), better known by his stage name Max Barskih (Ukrainian: Макс Барських, also written as Max Barsky) and alter-ego Mickolai, is a Ukrainian singer.

Career

In 2008, Max Barskih made his debut in performing on the Ukrainian talent show "Fabrika Zirok 2" (Star Factory 2).

In 2010, Max Barskih was nominated the best performer on the Ukrainian version of MTV Europe Music Awards.[4]

Barskih throughout his career has worked closely with the Ukrainian director Alan Badoev, who has directed most of his music videos. Barskih's videos have gained popularity in the CIS nations. The director preferred to use a variety of visual effects in order to gain such popularity such as in the song "Lost in Love | Теряю тебя" which was released in 3D format in the CIS nations.[5]

On 9 August 2011 Max Barskih was named "Singer of the Year" at the annual award ceremony of the "Crystal Microphone".[6]

In 2012, he entered the Eurovision Song Contest Auditions for Ukraine with the English version of his song 'Dance' but inevitably lost to Gaitana who represented Ukraine in Baku with her song 'Be My Guest'.
