“When I sing, I see the stories developing in front of my eyes…”
About me
Through the years I can’t remember having ever stopped humming melodies. After annoying my neighbours and flatmates for quite some time, I took the step towards the stage, to find out that there indeed was an audience that appreciated what I was doing.
I grew up listening to the masters of 1960s soul, soundtracks and the music of the great European and American singers and songwriters. For a short period of time I took classes at the classical music department of ‘Athenaeum Music School’. My way of singing could be described as ‘in the crooner tradition’, embracing not only jazz standards, but also Greek songs of this era.

10th Anniversary of ‘Athens Lindy Hop’
at ‘Odos Kassandras’
Event Information
It’s already been ten years since Mariangela Salihou from Athens contacted Nefeli Ambatzi in London (where they met and danced Lindy Hop already some years earlier, since 2004) and decided to start the Lindy Hop scene in Athens!
Come and celebrate 10 years since our beginning, with a big party, in one of the most wonderful places in Athens, with many guest musicians, many performances (including some of the most successful ones by the members of Athens Lindy Hop) and everyone you who love this dance and music!
We will also be joined by Nefeli who will come from London especially for the event and will once again present two of her wonderful performances!
The Music:
With our beloved house band ‘The Storyville Ragtimers’, one of the most authentic and powerful Swing bands in the city, we will host guest musicians and singers we have worked with over the years:
Doros Demosthenous, Dimitri Vassilakis, Ioanna Sackradim Tsagari (Black Cotton Doll), Vassilis Tsavaras, Sofia Filonos, Christos Kalkanis, Panos E. Gerakakis (alias Lieber Panos), Fotis Athanasiou
Some of the DJs who have passed through our decks these 10 years (Shorty George & Mississippi Outlaw) will keep you on the dance floor before, between and after the live shows!
Guest DJ: Josephine Giannakopoulou
Get ready to enjoy some exciting and glamorous Performances! We will present you some brand new, very powerful choreographies as well as some of the most successful ones we have done over the years.
Shows by ourselves, our students, our performers and the internationally recognized group of Mariangela Salihou ‘A Bowl of Cherries’!
We will be joined by teachers & organizers from other Athens Swing and RnR schools and groups for a big, festive Jam!
So far the following have been confirmed and will be with us:
Steam Rollers
while others are expected to be announced!
(The Rollin Foxes are of course our guests but due to commitments they may unfortunately not be able to attend)
The party will take place in an amazing venue, ‘Odos Kassandras’, a beautiful hall of exclusive events, atmospherically lit, with stone wall and wooden floor, ideal to host our dance!
It is a part of the history of Athens, already going through a history of a century and starting as a car factory (one of the first to appear in our city), while during the war it was used by the army as a material warehouse. After liberation, it housed shops and businesses and today, at the beginning of the 21st century, it has found its way again, as it has been transformed into a literally impressive space.
It’s a beautiful venue where we had one of our most successful parties in 2014 with Steve & Chanzie and the Speakeasies!
The entire Swing community is waiting for you to celebrate together 10 years of Swing dancing in a party that you will remember for the next 10 years!!!

Work as an Architect
After having worked for architectural practices in Germany, in 2004 I joined the office of Takis Exarchopoulos in Athens, where I had the pleasure of taking part in many creative projects – from scratch to built reality.
Today, along with Elena Exarchopoulou, we continue this work. You may find out more about it by visiting our office’s website .
