Sevdalides present Winter Tales, a carefully curated selection of Greek songs, bringing together well-loved favourites and lesser-known treasures inspired by the winter season. The programme explores how winter appears in Greek music, sometimes as a season, sometimes as a backdrop to stories of love, separation, memory and everyday life. Through a carefully selected repertoire, Winter Tales brings familiar melodies alongside songs waiting to be rediscovered, offering a glimpse into the richness and variety of Greek musical expression across the decades.
Rebetiko is a genre of urban Greek folk music that emerged in the early 20th century, often called the “Greek blues”. Originating from marginalized, working-class communities, blending Greek, Ottoman, and Balkan influences…
Based in the heart of London, Sevdalides is a Greek rebetiko trio brought together by a shared longing for home and a deep love for the “blues” of the Aegean.
The name “Sevdalides” comes from the Greek word sevdas — that burning feeling of love and passion. For us, it’s more than just a name; it sums up what we’re about. Our connection to the music, our friendship, and the stories carried in rebetiko songs all sit right at the centre of what we do.
