"Ranetki": the basic structure. "Ranetki": the history of the band and the replacement of participants

One of the most famous women's groups in Russia is Ranetki. The peak of their popularity was in 2008-2010. For all of their existence, they have had several solo concerts at major venues in Moscow, received several awards and successfully starred in the eponymous series, which made them the stars. A few years ago the group disbanded, however, as its members state, "Ranetki" continue to exist legally.

Ranetki Group

The Russian musical group was formed under the leadership of Sergey Milnichenko in 2005. They are the winners of the contest "Five stars". In addition, they became laureates of Eurosonic 2008. They were nominated in several nominations for "Muz-TV", in 2009 they received two awards. They became famous thanks to the songs written for the TV series "Kadetstvo". But the girls got special love from viewers, having acted in the TV project, which was called Ranetki. In 2008 and 2009 the group gave solo concerts in "Luzhniki" and in "Olympic".

Group members

The first composition of "Ranetok" at the moment is practically unknown to anyone. Initially, the group consisted of:

• Alina Petrova (bass guitar);
• Elena Galperina (vocals);
• Natalia Shchelkova, nowadays Milnychenko (solo guitar);
• Anna Rudneva (rhythm guitar);
• Valeriya Kozlova (drums);
• Evgenia Ogurtsova (keyboards).

Natasha Shchelkova was born on April 6, 1990 in Moscow. In my childhood I was engaged in figure skating, but I quit sports because of music. A few years after the creation of "Ranetok" she married the producer of the group Sergey Milnichenko and gave birth to three children: two daughters and a son.

Anya Rudneva was born on January 11, 1990 in Moscow. She studied in one of the capital's schools, and also graduated from MGUKI.

Valeria Kozlova is the oldest member of the group. Date of her birth: January 22, 1988. She never professionally studied music, but she was in the ensemble, where she was taught to sing and play correctly on the drum set.

Yevgenia Ogurtsova was born in Moscow on March 29, 1990. In her childhood she dreamed of being a surgeon, but her musical abilities changed her life. Even at kindergarten I was able to play basic melodies on the piano.

At the end of 2005, Alina left the group, in her place came Lena Tretyakova. Almost immediately, Halperin also leaves Ranetki. The composition of the band did not change until the second half of 2008, when drummer Lera Kozlova decided to pursue a solo career . It was replaced by Anna (Nyuta) Baidavletova. A year before the collapse of the group, in 2011, another participant is leaving - Anna Rudneva.

Former participants

The first group left Alina Petrova. Unfortunately, there is practically no information about it. It is only known that she played the role of bass guitarist.

The second left Lena Halperin, of which also nothing is known. At the moment there is only information that she was a vocalist.

A great tragedy for the fans was the departure of Lera Kozlova, since the change of the drummer occurred just at the peak of the band's popularity. The real reason why the girl left the project is not known, but there is a version that there were love disagreements with the producer. After leaving the girl began a solo career. Having released several singles, in 2011 announced that it was stopping its activities. However, after three years he releases a new song and in May 2015 he joins the group 5sta Family.

In 2011, the composition changes again. "Ranetki" and their fans are experiencing the loss of Anna Rudneva. Her departure caused a great scandal, as the producer for the first time lied about the fact that her absence is associated with pregnancy. But soon it was denied by the girl herself, writing a very unflattering commentary in the direction of both the group and the producer separately. After leaving, Rudneva started her solo career, releasing several singles. In addition to the musical sphere, Anya successfully arranged her personal life. The girl is married for the second time, from the first marriage she brings up her daughter Sophia. At present, she and her husband are expecting the birth of a second child.

Disintegration

The modified composition of "Ranetki" was well received and Nyuta's appearance was considered the beginning of a new era. Initially, the fans reacted poorly to the newly-made participant, but soon resigned themselves. However, the popularity of the music group, unfortunately, began to fall.

After the departure of Ani, the band ceased to conduct an active promotion and ceased to be interesting to listeners. They sadly played their last performances.

Natasha, Nyuta, Zhenya and Lena - this is the last line-up. Ranetki Break up in 2011 and begin their solo projects.
