Mandalakia is a London born project that breathes new life into the traditional music of Greece. With a distinctive approach, the band weave together the vibrant tapestry of Anatolian and Eastern Mediterranean music with the harmonic progressions and sound world of modern styles.
Drawing from their wealth of experience of touring and performing music from around the world, the group collects songs and dances from Asia Minor and Greek villages; playing them with a strong emphasis on the Maqam tuning and melodic system of Greek, Turkish and Arabic music whilst bringing them into the 21st century with their original arrangements, harmonies and groove.
Mandalakia were formed in the Summer of 2023 and have mainly performed intimate concerts in London, Leeds and lately in Athens and Thessaloniki.

Rebet Asker-Greek Roots Series:An afternoon of Greek Rebetiko for all the family!Rebet Asker was a restaurant/music venue which saw all the great Greek musicians and from the 20th century through to today pass through it. The walls of this little place in a small side street by Piraeus harbour have witnessed the history of the Greek Rebetiko as it has evolved over the last one hundred years. Some years have passed now, since it closed, but through this series of Sunday gigs we will do our best to recreate some of the magic of these musicians and their songs as it started and developed. Now in its 10th year, this tribute to the magical music of rebetiko, is the longest running series in London dedicated to this music. Come to hear classic songs and even some lesser known gems of great rebetiko musicians such as Toundas, Papazogklou, Skarvelis, Peristeris, Hadjichristos, Vamvakaris, Papaioannou, Tsitsanis, Mitsakis, Hiotis and more!
An afternoon of Greek Rebetiko for all the family!
