Nichya

Elena Kiper was the songwriter behind Tatu hits 'Ya soshla s uma' and 'Nas ne dogonyat' and, together with Oleg Borshevskii, has gone on to this new project. They have picked up interest from Tatu fans, but on the evidence of their new album 'Navsegda' (Forever) this is a more serious project. There are obvious similarities in style between the Tatu songs and some of Nichya's, but this band is not the novelty whim of an opportunist producer. The music is pitched towards a more mature audience and promises an interesting future for the duo.
