SPYRIDOULA

About Me

"Spyridoula" band was created in September '77 by the brothers Vasilis and Nikos Spyropoulos along with Adreas Mouzakitis, Kostas Kouremenos and Makis Mplazis. The first concert took place in a Sunday morning cinema theatre (Knossos-6.11.77). Few days later the already known and later legendary singer Pavlos Sidiropoulos asked the band to make a record together, and in 1979 the LP "Flou" (EMI) is released and becomes the most legendary record in the greek rock music history. Later, in 1982 rearrangements occur in the band having now Pavlos Vakatatsis (vocals), Melina Karakwsta (bass), Akis Perdikis (drums) and still the Spyropoulos bros in guitars; the result is another classic rock & roll LP, "Naylon Ntefia & Psofia Kefia" (EMI). Some years later the decay is obvious through the greek music society and industry, affecting many greek bands; an era which transforms during the '90s, but still leaves the ideal of creating a "Band" behind. The "Spyridoula" releases the 3rd record in 1994, "Taxidi sto kentro tis polis" (EMI), this time with Sotiris Theoharis (vocals), Dionisis Stefanopoulos (drums) and Nikos Doikas (bass) and in 1997 releases "Se troxia me apoklisi" again with Pavlos Vakatatsis in vocals and Dimitris Dimitriou (drums), under an independent label of the band. However, in 1999 the unexpected loss of the bass player and close friend N. Doikas leads the band, for one more time, to a dead end. But even that can't stand in the way when you deal with rock music. The band regroups in 2004, after a long silence, and forms an explosive mix along with younger influences, and releases "To vlemma twn anthrwpwn" in 2006. Even now, that there's been 30 years behind all these, the "Spyridoula Band" is still present, a-live and well known for its way to live rock...
