Over the years, The HARDKISS have toured extensively throughout Ukraine, Europe and the United States, gaining a loyal worldwide fan base in the process.
In 2023, Julia Sanina co-hosted the Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool. The HARDKISS had the honor of performing at the opening ceremony - an iconic moment for the band.
The band are multiple winners of the YUNA Music Awards, including Best Band and Best Album.
Beyond her role as frontwoman, Julia Sanina has been a judge on The Voice and The X Factor, lent her voice to characters in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, Trolls World Tour and The Smurfs: The Lost Village and reached the final of Strictly Come Dancing in 2020.
When war broke out in 2022, The HARDKISS became increasingly involved in social and charitable projects and dedicated themselves to supporting the Ukrainian people through their music. Julia also performed at numerous international events as an impressive cultural ambassador.
On June 13, 2025, The HARDKISS released their latest single "Crush". This marks the first release after a creative break, during which the band worked on their upcoming studio album - due for release in 2026.
The new record promises a bolder, darker and heavier sound, showcasing The HARDKISS in all their raw, uncompromising power.
In 2026, the band will not only be celebrating the release of their new album, but also their 15th anniversary with a completely new live show. Their appearance on the main stage of Wacken Open Air 2026 and as headliners of a major European tour have already been confirmed - the band's most powerful year to date is imminent.
