History
The Umaturman group was formed in July 2003 , when the Kristovsky brothers recorded a demo album consisting of 15 songs in the Nizhny Novgorod studio. He was sent to Moscow by record companies.
The first public performance of the group in Moscow took place on December 19, 2003 (on the birthday of V. Kristovsky) in the club “ 16 tons ” at a concert of Zemfira . Friends, having invited them there as a birthday present, they already informed the brothers there that they would be able to go on stage and together with the singer perform their song “Praskovya” (the recording of which they had previously transferred to Zemfira herself and she really liked it) .
The band’s first video was shot on March 23-24, 2004 in the cities of Yalta and Gurzuf for the same composition, which had become a real hit by then.
In June, “Umaturman” performs at the opening of the Moscow International Film Festival , where Quentin Tarantino was an honored guest.

The film was a resounding success at the box office, and the main song for a long time remained at the top of many charts. After that, two more clips were shot: “To say goodbye” and “Uma Thurman”.
On September 23 of the same year, the debut album of the group “ In the City N ” was released, and on October 16 the group became the winner at the MTV Russia Music Awards ceremony in the nomination “Best Debut”.
In 2005, the group signed a contract for performances in France with Warner Music . Agents Uma Thurman did not agree to use the name of the actress, because of which the group had to change the name to that proposed by the French partners - “Uma2rman”, or sometimes “Uma2rman” [1] .

In September 17, 2014, the group performs at the grand opening of the new Brooklyn club in Moscow.
