Since leaving Leb i Sol, Stefanovski has used his newfound freedom to pursue a myriad of other musical projects.
Since 1998, he has toured and played Macedonian folk songs exclusively with fellow guitarist Miroslav Tadić.
Unlike his previous works, these have been played mostly on acoustic guitar.

Stefanovski went back to his early ethno-rock roots from Leb i Sol with his VS Trio.
Their debut album in 1998 received great critical acclaim and helped define the new Vlatko Stefanovski sound.
 Stefanovski recorded several solo albums under his own name during this time period.
The sound on these albums ranged from pop on 'Kula od Karti' (Eng: 'Tower of Cards') to pure blues on 'Thunder From the Blue Sky'.

In 2006, he did a reunion tour with Leb i Sol, touring the former Yugoslavian countries.
After the tour, the band resumed without Stefanovski.

In 2012, Tommy Emmanuel, Stochelo Rosenberg and himself have formed a band called Kings of Strings, and have embarked on tour in mid-March.
