NIKOS STRATAKIS - NERO KI ALATI

NIKOS STRATAKIS - NERO KI ALATI (WATER & SALT)

Water and salt.

Two elements necessary for human being. Without water there is no life but without the salt life would not have the flavor it deserves!

Also, the phrase "Water and Salt" is used when we want to leave behind words that bother us. Nikos Stratakis through his second solo album "brings our ears" melodies and lyrics that definitely will not want to leave behind.

The disc "Water and Salt" is interpreted entirely by him, the music supervision and orchestration are the same and a bit 'dressed' with his lyrics.

In almost half pieces lyrics are Despina Spantidakis.

In "Palikari 20 years old' lyrics are traditional and in a song lyrics are Katerina Aerakis.

It is worth noting that the disc contains two old pieces adapted by Nikos Stratakis 'St' arahniasmeno mnima mou' Stelios Foustalieris and George Tzimakis and' Gramvousa' by Kostas Mountakis.

What comes to music, we would say that the whole project has Nikos Stratakis dare exclusively, but having and 'touches' three excellent musicians who complement him.

-Nikos Stratakis: lute, guitar, electric bass, percussion, vocals

-Giorgos Makris: kaval, bagpipes, low whistle, flute
