"Les Bottines Artistiques was founded in the autumn of 2014.

Both active in many musical paths, Guus and Pavel decided to cross paths and Les Bottines Artistiques was born.

Guus' French and Italian playing techniques and Pavel's Bulgarian roots result in a surprising musical palette. This has already resulted in countless performances at home and abroad (Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, France, Germany, etc.).

Guus and Pavel, both graduated from the art humanities option music respectively. diatonic harmonica and violin provide an unforgettable listening and/or ball sensation!"

More than 2 years and a sold-out demo CD later, we entered the studio with LBA in June (2017) for our long-awaited first full album. The CD is named after a song with many memories of our foreign adventures, 'Summertime'.

WINNER of the FOLKARRIA CONCURSO 2016 in Madrid, Spain.
