Kaya is a Bulgarian reggae band . The idea of forming the band was first hatched by bass guitarist Georgi Borisov on the day of the 1999 solar eclipse . At the time , 20-year-old Borisov was wandering among several garage bands who were not responding favorably to his easygoing style , which ultimately led him to form his own band later that year . Over the coming years , as Kaya went through more than 20 members , all of which contributing to its present style , it evolved to embrace ska and funk elements , as well as ethnic dance-pop
