History
Founded in 2010 by Irina Gorovoj and Oleksiy Potapenko, the production company recruited Oleksiy Zavgorodniy after his previous collaborations with Potapenko and the band . The female vocalist role was filled through casting sessions held online and in Kyiv, resulting in the selection of Nadiya Dorofeeva, who had won the Black Sea Games from Simferopol. Their initial single «Так випала Карта» ("The Card Fell Out Like This") debuted on November 17, 2010, quickly climbing to fifth position on YouTube's "World Musicians" chart.
Mostly producing Russian-language tracks, they occasionally released English versions, including Harmonica (2013). After 2013, they toured across Ukraine with MOZGI TOUR and hosted the UA TOP 10 chart on M1. Their hit «Имя 505» ("Name 505") achieved number one on Russian iTunes and Ukrainian YouTube rankings, marking a major commercial milestone.
Between 2017 and 2019, they acted as mentors on Ukrainian The Voice Kids, where their participant Oleksandr Zazarashvili won season five. In 2018, they launched «Финальные Титры» ("Final Titles"), the soundtrack for the Ukrainian romantic comedy Me. You. He. She, which starred Dorofeeva. That same year, Zavgorodniy and Dorofeeva lent their voices to principal characters in the animated film The Stolen Princess, also performing its main theme «До зірок» ("To The Stars").
On March 10, 2020, their music video «Назавжди/Ніколи» ("Forever/Never") titled «Время истекло» ("Time's up") suggested an impending split, which was confirmed the following day by both members who stressed their continued friendship and cooperation. They announced a farewell tour named «Фінальні Титри» ("Final Titles"), postponed until October due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Prior to this rescheduled tour, their final single "Last Dance" was released on July 10. The tour was renamed «Останній Танець» ("Last Dance"), concluding on October 30 at the Ukraina Palace of Arts.
