History

After the band was formed in 2001, it started to tour the country and performed at several festivals, such as Perlyny Sezonu, Tavriyski Ihry and Chervona Ruta. They became recognized by a broader audience after their appearance on the programme Fresh Blood on the Ukrainian TV channel M1.

However, since other singers disclaimed their support to Putin's politics, Oleh Sobchuk and other members of the band cancelled all cooperation with them and with any other events that could be related with politics.
