Giorgos Papadogiannis&Efi Sarantis “From Marko to Xioti”

Since 1993 Giorgos Papadogiannis and Efi Sarantis have begun to engage in rembetic music. Separated at the beginning, they appeared in many Athenian spots participating in various small and larger orchestras, playing and singing bouzouki and guitar, respectively.

When they met in 1996, they decided to make their first duet with bouzouki and guitar and they continued to appear professionally,with many “special” performances.
Their performances are distinguished by excellent selection of tracks, musically and lyrically and timbral to fit perfectly into the style of the instruments they use every time, in fidelity for implementation in the style, era and character of the pieces, but also in the well musical performance.

They have appeared in many scenes and venues in Greece and abroad, in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands.
