Tanya Boeva (Таня Боева) was born on November 3rd 1973... in the town of Topolovgrad. When she was 2 years old her parents recorded her singing the children’s song Diligent Brush. Then, it was when she was 13 years old when she first came on stage along with a band called ALCHEMISTS singing songs of Rosi Kirilova – her idol for a singer at the time. In fact singing with the same band, she won her first award a Golden Batch at the pop festival in the town of Haskovo. She studied at a Technical School of Chemistry, sang with band Orion with which after her graduation she started working at a place of entertainment. However, not before long the band fell apart and Tanya Boeva started making her independent career. She participated in shows, lived a life full of hardships but succeeded in make her childhood dream – to become a Singer, come true. The woman who was born under the Scorpio star sign is one who is witty, who does not stand contradictions and is full of temperament, partial to all life and professional problems, or in a word – Tanya Boeva succeeded in making her childhood dream come true in 1996. She participated in the competition for a young singer held during the festival The Golden Orpheus – 95 and out of a total of 13 participants she won the Ist prize by her author’s song called Cosmic Blues and by an interpretation of the Italian song Come Saprei Then, again in 1996 she sang on stage at The Golden Orpheus this time, however, she participated in the competition for a popular Bulgarian song.

Actually, Tanya Boeva’s first individual album entitled Love me with Tenderness and Soul came out in 1997. The songs included in it were written by the great figures of the Bulgarian pop music such as: Dimitar Getov, Nayden Andreev, Vasil Iliev, Haygashod Agasyan. In the same year she was nominated and awarded for a young pop singer of the year during the Annual Musical Awards of ART-ROCK CENTRE. Furthermore, her participation in the festival Song for Varna-96 was also a prestigious one and it was then when she made her decision for a change. The end of 1997 was so to say “time of parting” for Tanya Boeva. In 1998 the Singer released a second individual album called I Am Happy / Payner Studio/ in pop folk style. Actually, in this connection, she has over and over again said that: “I was actively engaged in pop music four years and, in view of all prizes I was awarded with, I was known by no one. Perhaps, the people from the musical circles knew who Tanya Boeva was, but to the rest my name meant nothing. At that time the pop folk was taking more and more secure steps, developing itself into a separate style. This was a real challenge to me – I decided to try the experiment though I had tried only with two folk songs so far. I hoped that I could find my place in the pop folk by dance- and ballade sound, by the typical ornaments for this style.” Then, in August 1999 Tanya Boeva’s third individual album came out with musical company Ara Audio – Video. The album entitled Queen of Spades was so to say her “strong weapon”. It was recorded in Hit House studio. Most popular became the following songs: Queen of Spades, With a Milk-and-Coffee Tan, My Dear, Broken Heart, Magic, I’m Looking for You – a part of the hits in pop folk as a whole. Moreover, the video clips to them were a measure for a sample in the genre. Also, her participation in the traditional festival Pirin Folk 99 , town of Sandanski, in September the same year was a prestigious one. Then, in October, at the festival The Golden Key organized by Art Rock Centre, Tanya Boeva won the award: Singer of the Year for 1999 and a golden statuette.

The authorship of the awarded song seems to be a part of the matrimonial unity - Tanya Boeva and Misho Burgudzhiev. Since 12 noon on September 18th 1999 they have been legal spouses. “It seems like we match – we think in one and the same way, do one and the same job, we are in love with one another and with our passion – the Music, in one and the same way!”.

Then again in November 2001, the Singer organized a trial hearing of young talents in order to realize the award, promised by her, namely A Duet with Tanya Boeva. The award was won by the 13-year old Mariya Dimitrova from the town of Asenovgrad, and the song which the two of them after that recorded together was a truly happy event for the young girl. Wild Angels was the title of the new hit and the recording was realized in May 2002 in Hit House studio. “I have promised to produce this song by myself, in fact, this was my special award. To this end the text of the song was written in 2001 and we created the music in February 2002. Then in August 2002 we shot the video clip to the individual version of Wild Angels.

There is love, disillusionment, drama, erotic, action, etc. in it and it is a work of the team of Colorbox and producer Nikolay Nankov. Then, the video clip to the remix of the incredible ballade It’s Not That I Love You was added to the attractive video collection. This was an original working out of the clip to the original video version but unused clips from the making, such as computer graphics and animation, were added to it.

In the wilderness of cover songs and the invasion of the Romanian songs to Bulgaria, not surprisingly keeping in mind the ever questing nature of the hit Singer, Tanya Boeva set the beginning of a new and original for the Bulgarian public combination – during the summer of 2005 the first Bulgarian – Romania duet, namely Tanya Boeva and Brandy, was realized.

The combination with my Romanian colleague Brandy and the song Love Hurts has a great success in Bulgaria and this give me reason to think for the next surprise, namely: a provocation to my audience. Our duet is broadcast by both Bulgarian and Romanian radios and TVs. The song was released both on the Bulgarian and the Romanian musical markets.
