Dysanatolia

Dysanatolia" is a band whose members are united by a common love and aesthetics for the traditions of both Greece and the wider Eastern Mediterranean region. Although because of the constant searches and different origins of its members, their original compositions are clearly westernized and orchestrated in a fusion mood. This creates a state in which the West constantly reigns with the East and the Balkans. The kanun switches with the saxophone, and the drums with the keys.

Over the last 8 years, the band has been traveling, with countless live performances on music stages in Athens, Patras, Lefkada, Ioannina, Arta, etc., performances at festivals across Greece and Cyprus, also in Istanbul, which is a common benchmark of the founding members, as well as participations such as Athens Music Week 2021 and TEDx UniWA, and appearances on Turkish and Greek radio and television.

In 2015, the band took a break, but from 2019, it began a different musical path than before, creating purely instrumental music. So, in the last 2 years, the band has been reconstituted with the founding members on the kanun (Manolis Christodoulou) and the saxophone (Chris Kiriazis), and adding three new talented members on the keyboards (Christoforos Mastorakis) and the drums (Nikos Christopoulos, Simos Konstantinidis), now playing their own original compositions. In 2021, they published their first album "After a Long Time".
