Horizont is a band with 40 years of history. Formed back in 1984 by classmates and friends, it has remained true to melodic rock for four decades now. In 1994, the band's first professional performance took place on the stage of "The Golden Orpheus". So, this year front man Valeri Slavchev (lead vocals and guitar), Dimitar Benkov – keyboards and vocals, Valeri Ivanov – bass guitar and vocals, and Mihail Zhelev - percussion instruments, are celebrating two anniversaries. The musicians commemorate these events with the release of the sixth album of the band called "Izmisleni istini" ("Invented Truths").

The anniversary year for Horizont includes many meetings with the audience - over 40 concerts. Some of them are part of the "Concerts with a Cause" tour, which will take place in summer theatres around the country in September and will include many performers. The rest of the concerts go under the motto "40 years Horizont band".
