A sign Moto Boy is hiding Oscar Hamlebo, extravagant young musician, owner of high-pitched falsetto and author and singer of soulful songs about love.
In Europe, speaking on Moto Boy, draws analogies with David Bowie and Jeff Buckley, in Russia, Oskar is compared to Jay-Jay Johansson and Patrick Wolf. This, however, also quite reasonable: all these musicians have beautiful melancholic songs and bright glamorous image. The musical biography of Oscar coexist concerts at mass gay pride parades and club venues around the world.
