  • Bio

    “…I will never understand why the name “GABANA” responds so correctly to the undefined style of the band. Even on our first rehearsal, we felt an emotional peak in the center of the triangle we formed, although we couldn’t play a single note…” The story Gabana is a band from Plovdiv claimed to be founded on the 6th of February 2000 – the day the first rehearsal took place. The musicians make songs of their own since the very beginning. Gabana’s music is a complex mixture of its members’ different preferences but its basic structure is very simple – pure rock’n’roll. The concerts For the past 11 years Gabana has performed live more than 500 times on different occasions – Plovdiv music clubs ( “Petnoto”, “Nylon”, “Non stop”, “Swing”, “Seven Hills”, “L-Z”, “Sax”, “Silver”, “Jethro”, “The Piano”, “C4”, “Marmalad”); Sofia live clubs (“O’Shipka”, “Backstage”, “Swingin’ Hall”, “The Mask”, “3 Ushi”, “The Eye”, "Fans", "Tucan bluzz&rock"); all over Bulgaria (“Zone 51”, “Alibi” – Varna; “Party Club Live” – Bourgas; “Melon” – Veliko Tarnovo; “Retro Club Live” – Kavarna).
