History

Early years (2005)

Ranetki formed in 2005, after songwriter Dmitry Popov and producer Sergey Milnichenko sought out castings for a new youth rock group.[1] The original line-up consisted of vocalist and guitarist Lena Galperina, bassist Alina Petrova, keyboardist Zhenya Ogurtsova and drummer Lera Kozlova, and were originally called "Clip SA", due to the group's tomboy appearance.[1] However, as the songs were written, the material began to become saturated with songs about first love, and they were renamed to the "Ranetki Girls" to the fit the style. They also added two members around this time, guitarist Natasha Milnichenko and Anya Rudneva.[1] The group met Sergei Krylov, who was also involved with the band's creation, taught Kozlova to play drums and they would practice songs by The Beatles and Nazareth.[1] By the end of 2005, Galperina left the group and joined Tuki-Tuki, and Lena Tretyakova replaced Petrova on bass. Kozlova also took over on lead vocals, while maintaining her position on drums.[1]

Ranetki (2006–2008)

The group signed with Megaliner Records in late 2005.[1] In May 2006, the group performed at the Eurovision competition.[2] They also performed at the Radio Day concert in Moscow that same month.[3] In September 2006, the group competed at the Five Stars festival in Sochi, performing the song, "Venus" by Shocking Blue.[4] Later that month, they opened for Russian punk rock band, Tarakany!.[5] In December 2006, their self-titled debut studio album was released.[6] It was presented live on December 5, at the B-2 Club.[7] The album was recorded at Milnichenko's home.[1] Two tracks from the album appeared on the Russian TV series, Kadetstvo.[1] The group participated in MTV Russia's musical battle programming on December 13.[8] In 2008, CTC launched their TV series of the name, which ran until 2014.[9] In 2009, the album won a Muz-TV Music Award for Best Album, as well as the single "Angels" for Best Soundtrack.[10]
