Onuka (spelling ONUKA) is a Ukrainian electronic band. It was founded in 2013 by Yevhen Filatov ( Ukrainian Євген Володимирович Філатов ) and Natalija Schyshchenko ( Наталія Олександрівна Жижченко ).
history
Onuka is Ukrainian and means “granddaughter”, an allusion to the instrument maker Oleksandr Schljontschyk ( Олександр Микитович Шльончик , 1921–2008), who was the grandfather of front woman Shyshchenko. Shyshchenko began her music career as a member of the band Tomato Jaws, which she founded with her brother.
In 2017 Onuka performed with the Naoni Orchestra as a pause filler in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 in Kiev.
The debut album was released on October 15, 2014 and became the most successful album of the month in Ukraine.
