Narodil sa 25. júna 1982 v Trnave. Hudbe sa začal intenzívne venovať v 18-tich rokoch a prvé vystúpenia absolvoval v rôznych kluboch a baroch, kde hrával na gitare prevzaté piesne, ktoré postupne dopĺňal o svoje vlastné pesničky. Zmena nastala až po víťazstve v 5. ročníku súťaže Coca-Cola Popstar, s ktorým prišla šanca vydať vlastný, debutový album , ktorý vyšiel pod názvom "Mám, čo som chcel" koncom septembra 2005 vo vydavateľstve Street Production. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Bystr%C3%A

Saint Bystrík (Latin Beztertus Nitriensis, Bestredius, Bestridus, Bestricus, Bistridus, Bistritus; Hungarian Beszteréd, Besztrik, Besztríd; died 1046) was a martyr and the Bishop of the Diocese of Nitra.

==Bystrík's bishopric== Bystrík was probably of Slavic or Hungarian origin. The exact place and time of birth of St. Bystrík is unknown, however he seems to have come from aristocratic family who had been Christianised in the mission of Cyril and Methodius before the end of the Great Moravian Empire in 907 AD. He was likely born sometime at the turn of the 10th and 11th centuries in the vicinity of Nitra. It is assumed that Bystrík graduated from the St. Hypolita school at Zobor Abbey. The disciples of Cyril and Saint Gorazd were spreading out from Zobor at this time and included Astrik, Prokop, Svorad, Benedict and Maurus.
