Ostava band starts the year with a new song and a mini club tour. "Vinoven/Guilty" is the title of the new single, which confidently marks the path to a new album. The music and lyrics are once again by Svilen Noev, the frontman and one of the two main songwriters of Ostava, alongside guitarist Georgi Georgiev. The album is expected to be released by the end of spring – the band is experiencing a great surge, and eight tracks have already been recorded.

 As always, the musicians from Ostava band cannot remain indifferent to what’s happening in the world, so in addition to love, they include pressing current issues in their songs, and "Vinoven" is no exception. The band’s frontman Svilen Noev has more:


"It is about wars and guns... Whenever there are difficult moments, I reflect them in my lyrics. The basis in human relationships should be love, but there are always nasty things on the side. A friend of ours wrote that it was optimistic – but for me (as the person who wrote the lyrics), it is a sad song about the moment when you part ways with someone and you feel both lonely and free".

In addition to the band’s established music hits, we will also hear the piece "Vinoven" live during Ostava’s club tour. It starts on February 14 in Plovdiv, followed by Sofia (February 27), Burgas (March 7), and Varna (March 8).
