DIRECT FROM GREECE: FOTIS VERGOPOULOS 💙🎤🎤🪕🪕🎸🎸🇬🇷Hailing from Greece, FOTIS VERGOPOULOS will make his return to Australia this December. Leading an exceptional ensemble of local & interstate musicians, Fotis represents the new generation of Greek talent, renowned for his remarkable musicianship & deep affinity with rebetika (Greek Blues).
Having toured extensively across Europe, Africa, Australia, & NZ, Fotis is currently based in Athens. He has collaborated with prominent artists such as Agathonas Iakovidis, Martha Fritzila, Babis Gkoles & Manolis Pappos.
Rebetika, a genre of Greek folk music often called 'Greek Blues', emerged in the early 20th century. It features themes of struggle, love & defiance, characterised by its raw, emotional style &typically performed with instruments like the bouzouki. This genre is deeply embedded in urban Greek culture.
Joining Fotis on stage will be distinguished guests and key figures from the rebetika scene in Australia.
