Summer Tour 2023

To celebrate the completion of three years and the tremendous success of the ERT1 television show "Musiko Koti" (Music Box), the creator and presenter of the show, Nikos Portokaloglou, and his co-presenter Rena Morfi, are preparing a major concert tour in Greece and Cyprus.

The acclaimed songwriter celebrated 40 years of his journey from Fatme to Musiko Koti last summer, with two sold-out concerts at the Herodeion and a grand nationwide tour, marking a rare presence of longevity and creativity in Greek music.

In 2020, he envisioned and created, along with a team of selected collaborators, the show that changed the landscape of television music, setting high standards and receiving unprecedented recognition and love from the audience.

The exceptional performer, who started with the band Imam Baildi and distinguished herself with original covers and numerous performances at international festivals in Europe and the USA, followed a highly successful solo career and made a great impression with her performances on the show.

Accompanied by three core members of the show's band, Vyron Tsourapis (bass, vocals) with his beautiful songs from his personal album "Lexeis Makrosyrtes," Lambis Kountouroyiannis (electric-acoustic guitar, vocals) with his new project "Roots" and their song "Zise Eleftheros," founding member of the Wedding Singers with numerous collaborations with acclaimed artists, and Thanasis Tsakirakis (drums, vocals) whose unique talent dynamically enhances and elevates the sound of all music genres, along with a group of exceptional musicians.

The concerts will include the most popular songs from the repertoire of the two artists, as well as selected moments from the show's impressive beginnings.
