Biography
2004—2006, band formation, first recordings
Obiymy Doshchu was started as a one-man project in 2004 as a result of Volodymyr's interest in writing music, singing and playing an acoustic guitar. His friend Oleksiy Katruk became involved in the project and helped Volodymyr record his first demo, and the demo in turn inspired his university mate Mykola to make a video for one of the songs (Mertve Derevo I Viter).
In spring 2006, Volodymyr forms the band with Oleksiy on the keyboards and Mykola on the bass guitar. In this lineup, the band makes its first live performance in Kyiv.
In Autumn, Oleksiy replaces keyboards with electric guitar and Andriy Demyanenko joins the band as a keyboard player. The band continues to create new songs and occasionally perform live. During this time, Oleksiy finishes the second video of the band (for the song Zorenko Moya). At the end of the year, Obiymy Doshchu record their second demo with 6 songs.
