Over the years, The HARDKISS has toured extensively across Ukraine, Europe, and the United States, gaining a dedicated global fanbase. 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 is a multi-time winner of the YUNA Music Awards, earning accolades such as Best Band and Best Album. Beyond her role as frontwoman, Julia Sanina has served as a judge on The Voice and The X Factor, voiced characters in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, Trolls World Tour, and Smurfs: The Lost Village, and in 2020 became a finalist on Strictly Come Dancing. When war broke out in 2022, The HARDKISS became active in social and charity efforts, dedicating themselves to supporting the Ukrainian people through music. Julia has served as a powerful cultural ambassador at numerous international events. On June 13, 2025, The HARDKISS released their latest single, “Crush”. This marks their first release following a creative hiatus spent crafting their upcoming full-length album—set for release in 2026. The new record promises to showcase a bolder, darker, and heavier direction for the band, revealing The HARDKISS in all their raw and uncompromising glory. In 2026, the band not only unveils a brand-new album but also celebrates their 15th anniversary with an all-new live show. Already confirmed for the main stage at Wacken Open Air 2026 and headlining a major European Tour, the band is set to deliver their most powerful year yet.
