The music of Bulgaria, a country long considered a cultural crossroad, is known for hauntingly expressive melodies, irregular rhythms, and fiery dance tempos. Now some of the country's finest musicians have formed Bulgarika (things Bulgarian).

Gadulka virtuoso Nikolay Kolev, internationally renowned singer Donka Koleva, and accordionist extraordinaire Ivan Milev together provide an evening of high-energy, musical acrobatics that will have you dancing in your seat.

For their California tour they are joined by Bill Lanphier (bass), Dan Auvil (tupan), and Bryan Bowman (drum kit on select shows).
