Being able to listen to and get reference from all kinds of music styles in an open and humble attitude, he is interested and very good at utilizing elements of R&B, Jazz, Pop… Although music market nowadays considers singer's powerfulness as a priority, he insists on finding a way of performing that makes “ears breathe freely”.

Multi instrumentalist Alexander has been mostly known for his outstanding saxophone playing. In this band he is the keyboard player, often playing the bass too. With just him on the keys, we hear a whole symphony orchestra plus bass and piano, all at the same time. It’s so much fun to watch him make magic happen with ease, as if just playing a fun game. Always with great passion and a big smile, he has respectful and kind ways of leading the guests in the band.

Boyana is a Bulgarian singer, composer, vocal coach and bass player. Her voice has often been referred to as a music instrument which gives you an idea of how she uses it. She never delivers a song the same way twice. She sings with freedom and modesty believes that everyone can be empowered with the same freedom as long as they develop awareness.

The plus in the name of the band stands for the different guests Alexander and Boyana invite on different performances. It also symbolizes the freedom and courage the 2 musicians possess, ready to create different vibes around the different guests they receive.
