Biography

Born in a year of 13 moons, an Athens based performer and musician. With a combination of avant-pop & contemporary-classic, Kristof's performances have elements of German cabaret with him singing, playing the piano & the synths while he's narrating stories. After 3 english-speaking albums, "Psychagogia (Entertainment)" is Kristof’s first album in his native language. Ψυχαγωγία (Psychagogia): 1. the recall of souls (from Hades) by magical means 2. the attraction of souls, the fun, the indulgence. Associative writing, verses full of images from mythology, movements and sounds direct the listener to relaxation and emotional outburst. The ten pieces transport us to other worlds, interrupting contact with everyday and petty reality. In combination with eerie vocals and prose, distorted pianos and synthesizers, a pure fantasy of the dream is built, creating the impression that within us there is another part of existence, different from the body. Most of the songs were written during the first quarantine period of 2020 and were completed at the end of it. The album was recorded in 2021 at Lotus studio with producer Vassilis Dokakis. The album’s artwork was art directed by Petros Aronis. "Psychagogia" is released on CD, Cassette and Digital via InnerEar.
