Sentimental Swingers

Established in 2010 Sentimental Swingers (Andronia Popova, Desislava Andonova and Vera Chandelle) together with musicians from Mihail Yossifov Sextet (Mihail Hristov Yossifov - trumpet, Velislav Stoyanov - trombone, Atanas Hadjiev - tenor sax, Vasil Spasov - piano, Dimitar Shanov - bass, Dimitar Dimitrov - drums and their special guest Michael Vladimirov Yosifov – guitar), revived the golden age of swing, brought back the beauty of jazz and revitalized the chansons. Their style is a guarantee for exclusive entertainment and performances that can satisfy the senses of every audience. The music program of Sentimental Swingers and Mihail Yossifov Sextet is a real time-travelling. Their music is a curtsey to the 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, when the music comes from the soul of the musicians and their musical instruments to tell true stories, to share feelings and inspires hope. This music style originates from the U.S.A, as opposed to the hard times during these years. The similarity between the difficult live we live today and back then provoke the musicians to rediscover, revive and spread this style. Sentimental Swingers together with Mihail Yossifov also creates their own compositions. Last year they presented their brand new single "Unemployed Lovers", containing the songs "Unemployed Lovers" and "Chanson Rose", and "Boy, boy" a revised version of the song by Josif Tzankov (well known Bulgarian composer from the past). They performed together and entertained the festival audience of "International Film Festival” in Cannes, International Francophone Festival "Soleil", Festival "A to JazZ", "Apolonia" Festival "Brazzobrazzie", "Carnival" in Gabrovo, Festival "Spirit of Burgas" and "Nisville Jazz Festival".
