The London Bouzouki Player - Greek Musician

This professional solo bouzouki player is based in London and is also a singer and guitarist - perfect for Greek themed events. Accompanied by backing tracks, his rich repertoire consists of Greek music as well as pop, rock, jazz and blues songs from the 30's to the 90's. He sings music from the Beatles, Sting, Eric Clapton, Queen, Elvis, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra and many others.

Due to his mixed Greek/Balkan background, he is able to perform Greek and Balkan music to a high standard, enabling for a pleasant evening of full-on party and dance including music from Serbia and Macedonia.

If a quieter but musically rewarding evening is desired, He can create an excellent atmosphere singing and be playing the acoustic guitar only, with a more sophisticated choice of old and contemporary Greek and Balkan music, providing for a unique and unforgettable music event. 

In the winter season, the repertoire is adequately enriched with a selection of Christmas Carols.

He was fantastic! What a lovely guy and whatever we requested and asked of him he obliged greatly. He came well on time. His singing and bouzouki playing was brilliant. We had the reception in a quirky cafe bar with a very cosmopolitan feel and he was dressed for the occasion. When I asked if he could play the bouzouki outside so we could do Zorba the greek he did not hesitate and in my opinion, he fully enjoyed that and received a lot of attention and applause. Great guy!! Everyone loved him.

Soula Joannou, , Wedding (July 2019)

He was truly amazing and he is such a greatly talented man. We asked if he wouldn't mind escorting the bridal party to the church and he was more than happy to assist, this turned out to be one of the best moments of our wedding everyone commented on how talented and how good he is and he brought the beautiful sounds of the bouzouki to life, such a talent and such a great man, thank you for everything.
