Maria Mateev presents her band KOYANGI and their debut single "Sama". The song tells about the battles with oneself and the fear that each of us experiences at a certain stage of our lives.

After more than a decade in South Korea, Maria Mateev decided to return and continue her career in Bulgaria. For 5 years now the singer has been part of Lubo Kirov's team. She gradually embarked on the next challenge of creating her own music and also a band.

The beginning is precisely the song "Sama"(Alone). Maria Mateev wrote the music and lyrics, she created the arrangement together with Radoslav Paunov, Nikola Dzhokov and Petar Todorov.

"The name and message of the song are not accidental. They tell about this inner struggle that I had with myself for a long time and the fears that stopped me from believing that I could cope with this endeavor," Maria Mateev says about the song.
