G et Wind were created in May 2005 by 3 guitarists (Jason, Jim and Nick) all because of their love of the electric blues. At first it was just a studio project, but things started to get serious when first two songs, "Jungle Boogie" and "Savanna Blues" started getting rave reviews on Greek websites. And this was just the beginning...
T he bass guitar and drums for those first demo recordings where all MIDI. This wasn't right, not for a blues band anyway, so the talented Manos Kontopoulos and Sterghios Moschos were kind enough to donate their time and effort to turn the tracks into bona fide blues numbers. And so it moved on with tracks being recorded, mixes being mixed and jams being jammed until October 2006 when the site that brought the guys together Kithara.gr decided to organise a festival. Of course Get Wind had to be there...
A nd so they were. With George Kalantzopoulos substituting Nick on the guitar, the guys boogied the venue like no other. And this was just the beginning... November was just around the corner and so was their second gig. Utilising the voice of Paris Michailidis and with Yannis Madesis and George Palaitsakis taking over the bass and drums respectively, Get Wind rode again! December finds them preparing for a show back at 5/4 Club, the site of their first triumph. But as always Get Wind remain in a constant state of change. Jason, Jim and Yannis keeping the body tight, while Alex Rempelos takes over on vocals and Sterghios Moschos returns to torture those drum skins once again!
T he new year finds the band writing and recording new material... Prepare to Get Wind of something big!!!
