With the support of producer Oleh Zbarashchuk, the band embarked on their journey. Their first performance in Vinnytsia, before an audience of a thousand, marked the unofficial birthdate of "TIK."

Fate intervened when a demo recording reached the hands of Vitaliy Telezin, renowned Ukrainian sound producer known for his work with "VV," "Okean Elzy," and others. Impressed by their talent, Telezin offered "TIK" a chance to record at his "211" studio.
In 2006, the band underwent a significant lineup change. Repey and Tереra departed, making way for Sergey Fedchishin on bass, Zhenya Zykov on keyboards, and Yan Nikitchuk on trumpet. This new lineup made its debut on May 26, 2006, in Zhytomyr.
