Martin Lubenov is one of the most unconventional accordionists of our time - a virtuoso, comedian and storyteller all in one. Based on the Roma music of the southern Balkans and the most sophisticated Ethno-Jazz of Bulgaria, he has created his ownmusical language, a hybrid with an immense personal tinge, that breaks out of all conventional "Balkan music" clichés. "Jazzta Prasta" is a Bulgarian colloquial expression meaning, among other things, 'hubbab'. This is the self-deprecating nameof a very unusual Balkan Jazz Trio. Launched in 2004, this project reflects Martin Lubenov's passion for jazz and his love ofimprovisation. Together with Angel Demirev (guitar) and Misho Ivanov (double bass) Lubenov confirms his well-tried recipe ofcombining virtuosity, playfulness, lightness and flamboyance, propelling these qualities by breath-taking loops into new heights.'Jazzta Prasta play intelligent ethno jazz for audiences of various IQ.They make music that, despite the complexity of people,opens up their hearts and makes them feel groovy. This is music for miraculously quick healing of cut veins."Richard Schuberth, Vienna.
