Nervy (Нервы; “nerves”) is a Ukrainian alternative-rock band. The band was formed in 2010 by singer and pianist Zhenya Milkovskiy (Женя Мильковский), following his solo career several years earlier. The original band members include Milkovskiy (vocals, guitar), Dmitry Dudka (Дмитрий Дудка; bass guitar), Anton Nizhenko (Антон Ниженко; drums), and Vlad Zaychenko (Влад Зайченко; guitar, backing vocals).
The band released music videos directed by Milkovskiy, including “Radio Wave” (“Радио волна”) and “Stupid Girl” (“Глупая”), among others. In 2012, Nervy was nominated for the “Breakout of the Year” award by Muz-TV and began to tour in Russia and Ukraine, while recording other songs and music videos. In 2014, Nervy disbanded when bass guitarist Dudka left.
The band then separated from its producer, Kruzheva Music. Almost a year later, Nervy got back together with a different producer and released a third album. In April 2016, two more members of the group, Zaychenko and Nizhenko, left. Milkovskiy then found three other members, Roman Bulakhov (Роман Булахов; guitar, backing vocals), Evgeny Trukhin (Евгений Трухин; bass guitar), and Aleksey. In 2023, the rock band was slated to play a concert in Vienna.
