Album Launch ‘Tokyo’
Last Show: Sunday 14 th May 2017

Bulgarian singer songwriter, Ruth Koleva, returns with new single ‘Tokyo’. It’s another head-nodding groove that quickly gets in your head and won’t let go. Produced by compatriot Gueorgiu Linev of LA band Kan Wakan, and written with Beats 1 Radio composer Jonah Christian and rising star Rachel Row, this brooding love song explores the idea of opposites attracting. “We grow when we exchange energy,” she says. “And that’s why this song is called ‘Tokyo’. It’s a meeting place where many worlds collide.” The track features another impressive group of musicians at the vanguard of contemporary soul/RnB including keys maestro Ron Avant (Anderson Paak) drummer Gene Coye (Flying Lotus) and bassist Cooper Appelt. Koleva’s second album Confidence. Truth will be released in Spring 2017.
