Many artists take a break from the major clubs of Athens and Thessaloniki and go out to perform in the regional areas and islands.  So summer is an opportunity to maybe catch a favorite singer either close to your visiting town or island or while you’re being a tourist around the nation.

Here are a few of the artists that are touring around the country thanks to athinorama.gr

Nikos Portokaloglou

The singer made famous to our younger friends or newcomers with his song “Thalassa Mou Skoteini” from the movie Brazilero.  Of course Portokaloglou has been around a lot longer than that with his rock-folk group Fatme.

Here are some of the places he will be performing at:

August

19th – Mytilini Harbour

September
7th – Beer Festival at Neo Faliro, Pireaus

Mihalis Hatzigiannis
