The Bulgarian neo-folk duo Flying Nomads are making a comeback with the song Redwall. In their newest project, Kristina Angelova (daf, percussion) and Daniel Angelov (tambura, vocals) lend voice to their concerns over a direct threat, connected with the investment proposal for the creation of a quarry in a region which is part of Natura 2000, inside the buffer zone of the Red Wall biosphere reserve which is on the UNESCO list.
Flying Nomads earned wide acclaim at international festivals such as Exit and Cosmopolis. Their reputation on the music scene was given an additional boost when their song Embers was included in the promotional CD of the magazine Songlines.
