.wav band

WAV is a Boston band known for it¹s feverish blend of Balkan folk
music, blazing jazz-chops, and sixties surf-band sensibilities, amped up and pitched forth at an unforgettable rock-rave intensity.

The ensemble, which
is lead by Bulgarian marimba virtuoso Vessela Stoyanova and
composer/guitarist Troy Kidwell, features multiple percussionists, scorching violin, middle-eastern vocals and has members hailing from Japan, Switzerland, Lebanon, and Greece.

.WAV has headlined Boston shows at the
Berklee Performance Center, the Charles Playhouse, and the Coolidge Corner Theater. The band has also been featured guests on radio stations WERS and WZBC as well as playing the Knitting Factory and Mehanata in New York City.


In 2001 .WAV was a featured act at the Festival of Bulgarian Culture in Toronto. It was there that the band first performed with Yanka Rupkina and
formed the creative bond, which has lead to this series of unforgettable live collaborations.
