Kaya (Bulgarian band)

The idea of forming the band was first hatched by bass guitarist Georgi Borisov[1] on the day of the 1999 solar eclipse. At the time, 20-year-old Borisov was wandering among several garage bands who were not responding favorably to his easygoing style, which ultimately led him to form his own group later that year.[2]
