In terms of music, the Shopi have a complex folklore with the [[heroic epic]] and humor playing an important part. The Shopi are also known for playing particularly fast and intense versions of [[Bulgarian dances]]. The [[rebec]], called a [[gadulka]]; the [[kaval]] and the [[bagpipe]], called a gajda, are popular instruments and two-part singing is common. Minor second intervals are common in Shop music and are not considered dissonant.
 
Two very popular and well-known fоlklore groups are [[Poduenski Babi]] and [[Bistrishki Babi]] — the Grandmothers of [[Poduene]] and [[Bistritsa, Sofia|Bistritsa]] villages.
