Jivko Petrov Trio

Bio

Живко Петров Трио JP3  (Живко Петров - пиано, Веселин Веселинов Еко - контрабас и Димитър Семов - ударни) е комбинация от трима музиканти, които са в основата на българската джаз и поп сцена в България през последните 30 години.


Групата се ражда като идея в Созопол по време на фестивала Аполония след соло концерт на пианиста Живко Петров. През годините триото споделят една сцена с 

Чик Кърия и Бела Флек и са част от музикалните биографии на Йълдъз Ибрахимова, Камелия Тодорова, Мария Илиева, Белослава, Хилда Казасян, Орлин Павлов, Любо Киров, Васил Петров, Орлин Горанов и много други.


JP3 е концепция за музика, визуализирана през 2007 в DVD проекта Understandable, 

JP3 са 13 музикални приказки, в албума "It's A Dream" (2012),

JP3 са 9 свята в "Between the Worlds" (2015),

JP3 и Гери Турийска, “Nothing is over” (2017),

JP3 са трима приятели, мечтатели, свързани с любовта си към музиката.


От 2020, контрабасист на триото е Димитър Карамфилов. Излиза 4-я албум на JP3 “Change the way”. 

Есента на 2022 триото издава албума "On the Way", който става вторият най-предпочитан албум на джаз радиата в САЩ и Канада.

През 2015 JP3 издава два албума  "Beyond The Flesh" и "Flesh"

саундтрак към филма “Плът”, заедно с китариста Христо Вичев.

JP3 formed after a memorable solo piano concert by Jivko Petrov at Apolonia Arts Festival in 2004. He and his friends Dimitar Semov (drums) and Vesselin Vesselinov Eko (double bass), both of them well established musicians in Bulgaria, decided to arrange and perform Jivko's tunes as a trio.


In November 2006, their performance at the Military club in Sofia was recorded and filmed, and the DVD "Understandable" was released.

2007 - JP3 opened for Chick Corea/Bela Fleck in the National Palace of Culture, and received

admiration for their work from both of them.

During the years, JP3 took crucial part in some of the most successful pop and jazz projects in 

Bulgaria. The trio also performed alongside artists like Sarah Brightman, Zucchero, Vasko Vassilev, Omar Faruk Tekbilek and Francesco Bearzatti.


2012 - JP3 has recorded their second album called “It’s a Dream” , which was presented on London jazz fest. 

Next album “Between the worlds” is released in 2015.

2017 - “Nothing is over” (single), feat. Geri Turiyska. 

2020 - Dimitar Karamfilov (double bass), joins the trio for the fourth album, called 

"Change the Way".

2022 - the band released their 5th studio album "On the Way".

2025 - "Beyond The Flesh"

The trio also contributed to the soundtrack of the film “Flesh” (2025) alongside guitarist Hristo Vitchev.
