Trifonov is active mainly in the folk music (pop-folk) genres but he has experimented with other genres such as hip-hop, pop-rock and punk as a part of Ku-ku Band (Bulgarian: Ку-Ку Бенд). His name is associated mainly with the Slavi's Show, Exiles, Canaletto and KU-KU.

He is the youngest of three brothers and has a sister, Petya, three years older than him, who he has said is the person closest to him. He was named after his grandfather Stoyo.

He grew up in a strict family where his mother had a major role, and upheld the value of a good education. Trifonov and his sister were excellent students. He liked spending time reading books.

Eventually he enrolled in the music school in Pleven. During one of the school holidays, he went to Kaylaka park with his school class. Although uncomfortable, and feeling out of place there, he decided to participate in the talent night during which different performances were presented. Trifonov performed few jokes he had memorized earlier from comedian Dimitar Shkumbata's apocryphal audiotape. Trifonov was surprised by the audience's positive response and their request for an encore. He defines this as turning point in his life.

In 1985 graduated from SMU Panay ot Pipkov in Pleven having learned the viola, дайре и дудук. He later graduated from the National Academy of Music in Sofia, Bulgaria. where he was taught by Professor Pancho Vladigerov.

Trifonov, along with Peter Kurumbashev and Lyuben Dilov Jr., was one of the first producers of private programming on Bulgarian National Television (BNT).
