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.[1] 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.[2]
