As a Composer, Producer, Arranger and Multi-Instrumentalist, Bobi brings a unique international flare and the flavor of Europe to Music on Mack Avenue. A native of Macedonia, a modern country in Southeastern Europe bordering Greece, his cultural roots and strong historical tradition are evident in his original compositions, film and TV scores.

His music education started at a young age on the piano -- at school, the music council selected the clarinet to be his lead instrument. He dreamed of continuing to play piano -- yet in studying the clarinet, he discovered the beautiful tones and many virtues of the instrument. Later, returning to his first love he was classically trained on piano, and then picked up the guitar. His creativity and ear for all music encouraged him to explore various musical journeys and he was later influenced by popular music and began performing on guitar and piano in a variety of styles including blues, rock, pop and jazz.

Bobi formed his first band at the age of 14, and began composing original music at age 19. His first single enjoyed success in Macedonia, and a year later his debut album was released. His follow up instrumental project "Too The Roots" was released in 2001 and published by Macedonian Broadcasting. Critically acclaimed, his talent and compositions made their mark in Macedonian music.

Bobi continues to be in demand playing and recording with many notables across Europe. With three recording projects under the production of Macedonian National Radio and Television, Bobi continues to create music for the network. A talented and highly skilled composer and musician, Bobi strives for perfection and enjoys the challenge of introducing his music to film and television all over the world. He is currently recording his fourth album for release next year. You can sample many of his compositions through the MOMA library.
