Timeline

1945

Fifteen years later, it premiered at the State Opera of city of Ruse, Bulgaria, for the 450th anniversary of Nostradamus's death.

1961

Nikolo Kotzev (Николо Коцев) (born 6 June 1961) is a Bulgarian guitarist, violinist, songwriter and producer, perhaps most famous for his 2001 rock opera Nostradamus and his band Brazen Abbot.

Kotzev was born in Pazardzhik and started taking violin lessons at the age of five.

While in his teens he took an interest to rock music, and started playing the guitar.

Nikolo worked as a session musician and played the guitar in a Bulgarian rock group Impulse.

While touring with the band in Europe in the late 80s, Nikolo met Swedish singer Björn Lodin.

1989

When Nikolo relocated to Mariehamn, Åland, Finland in 1989, he joined Lodin's band Baltimoore, with whom he recorded two albums: Double Density (1992) and Thought For Food (1994).

1994

Creative differences led to Kotzev's departure in 1994, at which point Nikolo started working on a solo project under the Brazen Abbot moniker.

1995

The result was Live and Learn (1995), which featured singers Göran Edman (ex-Yngwie Malmsteen), Glenn Hughes (ex-Deep Purple, ex-Trapeze) and Thomas Vikström, keyboard player Mic Michaeli (Europe), bassist Svante Henryson and drummer Ian Haugland (Europe).

Kotzev played the guitar, produced, mixed and wrote all the songs for the album.

1996

The follow-up album, Eye of the Storm (1996), featured mostly the same people, with Joe Lynn Turner (formerly of Rainbow and Deep Purple) replacing Hughes and John Levén (Europe) replacing Henryson.

1997

The same line-up also released Bad Religion (1997).

Brazen Abbot was put on hiatus when Kotzev started working on a rock opera about Nostradamus.

2000

Due to a string of setbacks, including scheduling conflicts and Kotzev's record company, USG Records, going bankrupt, the album wasn't completed until 2000 and was finally released as Nikolo Kotzev's Nostradamus in 2001 on SPV Records.

The album featured most Brazen Abbot members, in addition to singers Jørn Lande (Masterplan), Alannah Myles and Sass Jordan.

2002

Kotzev resumed work with Brazen Abbot in 2002, releasing Guilty as Sin in 2003.

The line-up was mostly the same as for Bad Religion, with Lande replacing Vikström.

Michaeli, Levén and Haugland departed Brazen Abbot to rejoin Europe.

2004

Temporary replacements filled in during a short tour in Bulgaria, recordings of which were released on the live album A Decade of Brazen Abbot (2004).

2005

My Resurrection followed in 2005, and featured four singers: Edman, Turner and new members Tony Harnell (TNT) and Erik Mårtensson and a new backing band consisting of bassist Wayne Banks (ex-Sabbat, Blaze), organist Nelko Kolarov and drummer Mattias Knutas.

In addition to being a recording artist, Kotzev has also produced and mixed albums by other bands, such as Saxon, Molly Hatchet, Rose Tattoo and Messiah's Kiss.

2011

In 2011 Kotzev started a band in Sofia, Bulgaria, named Kikimora (Кикимора), which plays hard rock with Bulgarian lyrics.

2015

He received criticism from his former colleague Joe Lynn Turner in 2015 when he released a twentieth-anniversary compilation CD/DVD of Live And Learn material, which Turner condemned as a 'homemade bootleg.'
