I'm a Bulgarian folk singer based in London, performing traditional songs rooted in Bulgaria's rich vocal heritage. After years of training and performing in ensembles across Europe, I now focus on solo work, bringing together raw a cappella singing and intimate instrumental arrangements. Through concerts and workshops, I share the emotional depth, storytelling, and beauty of Bulgarian folk music with audiences in the UK and beyond.
