The band was selected by national broadcaster BTRC to represent Belarus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 with the song "Ya nauchu tebya (I'll Teach You)", that was released on 9 March 2021. However, on 11 March 2021, it was decided by the European Broadcasting Union that their song had put "the non-political nature of Eurovision in question" and the song was disqualified. The band presented a second song "Pesnya pro zaytsev (Song About Hares)" which was in its turn rejected by the EBU for similar reasons depriving the band and Belarus from taking part in the 2021 contest altogether.
