Eva Lea (previously known as Eva Parmakova) is a Bulgarian pop singer with a voice and style that stand out on the modern pop scene. She first gained national attention in 2017, when her powerful performances on Bulgaria’s X Factor quickly made her one of the show’s breakout stars.

Since then, Eva has built a sound that blends catchy pop melodies with fresh electronic elements. In 2020, her collaboration with Turkish DJ Hakan Akkus, “Runnin’,” became the most played song by a Bulgarian artist that year—spreading far beyond Bulgaria and connecting with listeners in Turkey, Germany, and the US.

After spending time developing her sound and artistic vision, Eva returned with a new stage name, Eva Lea, and a new chapter in her music. “Butterflies,” the first single of this era, dives into the highs and lows of love—capturing both its boldness and vulnerability. The track also shows Eva Lea’s love for pop divas and the R&B vibe of the late ’90s and early 2000s, blending nostalgic touches with a modern pop feel.

In 2025, Eva Lea continues to evolve her sound and image with “Prestupnica”—a confident, genre-bending track that marks a turning point in her artistry. Embracing darker tones, sensual energy, and a more daring visual style, Eva signals the beginning of a new, unapologetic chapter. “Prestupnica” solidifies her place not just as a performer, but as a creative force redefining what it means to be a pop artist in the region today.
