Spanning 49 minutes, this collection of 14 tracks offers a captivating journey through the heart of Roumeli, a region known for its cultural and musical heritage.
Alekos Dimou, a revered figure in Greek music, masterfully blends traditional melodies with contemporary influences, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh.
