About the Concert
Ruth Koleva European Tour 2018
Supporting Act: Mayiia
Ruth Koleva
Think music and Bulgaria is probably not the first place that springs to mind. But it’s definitely got soul and RUTH KOLEVA is leading the pack. Born into the hardship of post-Communist Eastern Europe, she quickly developed into a rounded artist. There were multiple excursions into local scenes, a stint at the Hollywood Pop Academy… Then came her debut album. RUTH scooped the top prize at the BG Radio Awards in 2014. Hit-making producer Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse, Lady Gaga) called it “amazing”. RUTH KOLEVA has since become a national treasure. She’s shared the stage with legends including jazz vocalist Bobby McFerrin, wooed kindred spirits like N’Dambi and performed two sold-out concerts at Bulgaria Hall with the Sofia Philharmonic Orchestra.
Mayiia
During the last years, she has been experimentating with different noises and musical elements, using the handpan as a harmonious accompaniment, when singing with the voice.
Last year she released her EP "S I V E L A D O".
A response to having spent some time touring and traveling abroad. Currently, Mayiia is touring with her solo program Following Neptun.
Wide nordic spaces and poetic lyrics create a new space for the gentleness of open-heartedness and the connection of the inner sound.
As Mayiia says, "All music comes from silence and end in silence".
