The prosperous career of singer and songwriter Zhana Bergendorff continues. The rising star has snatched a prize from the Debut category of the prestigious BG Radio Awards. She recently released the video to Nevazmozhni sme sami (Impossible Alone), the singer's second solo single. Unlike most of her colleagues in Bulgaria Zhana Bergendorff's first success was away from home - in South Korea. A few years on she moved to her husband's home country Denmark. After her winning participation in the local X Factor TV show and the success of her song Samurai Zhana Bergendorff has become one of the hottest stars on the Virginia Records label in Bulgaria.
Bulgarian Jean Marinov who left this country in childhood and has been living in Switzerland, has breathed new life in poetry by Petya Dubarova with the song Memories. The lyrics are an abridged version of the poem Untouched. The permission for using the text was given by the poetess's sister Elitsa Dubarova-Petkova. This is not the first piece of the emigrant based on lyrics by famous Bulgarian poets. A year ago Marinov who lives in Basel shot a video to the song You are in me on lyrics by Nikolay Liliev.
Jean Marinov is related to Petya Dubarova in a curious way. The museum-house of the poetess in the Black Sea city of Burgas was once the property of his grandfather.
Last year Maria Grancharova was back to the pop music stage after a break of 13 years. The daughter of Bulgarian pop legend Borislav Grancharov has launched a new project, Sleepless.
