Melina's Official Space

About Me

MELINA TANAGRI is a charismatic singer and songwriter from Athens, Greece. She has many successful albums in her recording career (especially in the 80s), albums such as "Ola Mperdevontai Glyka", "Vizakia Ekso Loipon", "Melina Ap' To Meli" and "Kontra Kardias". Her last album -released in 2001- is called "To 'Heis". Her music style could be characterised as easy listening/pop, with some french bel-canto and of course, many greek and french chanson and mediteranean music influences. Melina Tanagri uses as music instruments mostly acoustic guitars, flute, violins and keyboards, creating soothing soundscapes, with a classical at times sound (especially on her earliest albums). Simple and to the point, her lyrics are powerful and personal (often with hidden humorous references) and her voice is soft, expressive and theatrical as she is also a very diversive interpreter who specialises in various French song genres.
