About Me

Born in Athens, I lived in Holargos till my 18. While studying at Porto Patrasso (the exotic Patras) I got to know the rest of the guys of "In Time" (Voukolikos-drums, Giakoumis-sax and Dizzy-bass). The samples are veeery old (also bad quality as they are live recordings), I will upload some more decent recordings as soon as possible.

I play electric and naylon guitar and I like fooling around with percussion/drums and the piano. Some people object when I go towards the drum set..makes me sad. I love funky, jazz and latin music, but also other stuff from drum&bass and trip hop to folk music, mainly Balcan, African, Portuguese and Brazilian. Since September 2006 I am living in Barcelona.
