The rock quartet "Gabana" has proven as one of the influential bands shaping the modern Bulgarian alternative rock scene in recent years.

Angel Dyulgerov – guitar, Viktor Stambolov – vocals and guitar, Nikola "Nixon" Dzhokov – drums and Stoyko Milev – bass, formed the band more than two decades ago in Plovdiv. For this time, the guys have created many songs, as most of them are collected in three albums.

In 2006, their very first album was nominated for best rock album of the year at the Music Awards of the MM TV channel. Ten years later, their second album named “Lovepill” was released. Their latest and third album, entitled "Pulse", includes ten songs in Bulgarian. After the singles "Pulse", "Vreme" ("Time") and "Mechta" ("Dream"), the band presented a fourth single from the album called "Ptitsa” ("Bird").
