In the last days of summer, Teddy Russeva with the stage name Tiara presents her new song “Samo moreto” (“Only the Sea"). With it, the actress, whose musical career started four years ago, fulfilled her dream - to participate in the "Burgas and the Sea" song contest.

"I am the granddaughter of Ivan Kolarov, who is the composer of the emblematic song ‘Burgas Evenings’. So, I am hereditary connected to music and to Burgas. Not only because I was born there, but because I am the heir of this symbol of the city, of the anthem of the city. I simply had no choice but to join the competition, because for me it is a continuation of his work," Teddy Russeva says.


She is the author to the lyrics of nearly all her songs. She prefers to create her own lyrics, usually based on personal experiences. She claims that in this way she heals herself and other people who recognize themselves in her songs share that they have been deeply touched.

For the music and arrangement of "Samo moreto", Teddy turned to Zheko Zhekov, who also participated in the video for the song. The plot is based on Teddy’s childhood memories. The little girl, who recreates the singer as a child, gradually reaches the sea and the Summer Theater, where she sings in front of 2,000 people live thus fulfilling her childhood dream.
