History

The band was officially formed on October 11, 2012, when the group released their first music video titled "Show Girls" [1]

On June 25, 2014 the group held a presentation event for their new music video "На Десерт" ("For Desert") in City Beach Club in Kyiv, Ukraine. The music video was shot in Germany.[2]

In early November 2015, the public found out that Vika Vernik left Open Kids. In the same month it was revealed that the group announced casting for the fifth group member[3]

In early December 2015 the band debuted on stage for the first time. The concert took place in Caribbean Club in Kyiv.[4]

In February 2016 Open Kids presented their first song about love, "Кажется" ("It Seems").[5]

In October 2020 members of Open Kids released IGTV video announcing they will no longer participate in group. Shortly after producers released casting info.

In 2021, a new lineup replaced the old one.[6]
