”Dessy is a talent I will remember for many years. She has that rare combination of technical music skill, strong vocal ability, amazing stage presence and a passion for performing that makes it clear why she is a star...” - David Parks, Consulting Producer

She is an unforgettable performer with broad range of musical styles. Through many concert performances as a multi-award winning vocalist and musician, Dessy spread the beauty of the Bulgarian voice and music in many countries such as UK, Bulgaria, Russia, Israel, China, USA, Germany, Egypt, etc. In some cities she performed in front of audience of 50 000 people.

This summer Dessy Dobreva was touring all around Bulgaria, as a special guest with one of the most popular TV Comedy show “Komicite” in honor of 100 years from the end of the Balkan War.

In this 5th USA tour, Dessy will be a special guest at the Gala celebration concert of the Bulgarian dance ensemble “Horo” in Chicago and will perform with them for the Bulgarian-American community in St Louis, MO. In San Francisco she will perform with Bulgarian dance ensemble “Antika.” Dance groups and musician will join Dessy in Detroit, Boston, New York, Atlanta, Phoenix, Minneapolis and more.

Vassya Valentino, San Diego, Nov 15
Dessy's concert in San Diego is over. It feels like a love is going away, but it's great that at least her songs can stay with me. It's magical to meet and know a performer that one adores especially when the artist is such a rare combination of a great talant and a beautiful person.

Bella Litchev, San Diego, Nov 15
