THE JAZZ DECOMPRESSION MONDAY SESSIONS

A speakeasy listening bar experience with

the Athens Jazz Syndicate (AJS biweekly residency)

featuring

Thanos Dascalopoulos (Tap Jam).

Three live jazz music sets starting with AJS core at 8pm.

Athens Jazz Syndicate core consists of Elizabeth Mitsou (guitar), Harry Pantazis (bass), and Alex Karalias (drums).

The Athens-based jazz trio expands into a dedicated group of jazz musicians specializing in live music events in Athens, New York, and Paris.

Hardcore aesthetics are a must to their musical identity, hence their biweekly residency at Burger Disco Club's basement, on Jazz Mondays.

Thanos is a leading figure of tap dance and body music in Greece, while sharing and performing around the globe. Mentored by Heather Cornell and Max Pollak, his work focuses on the music delivered from the body sounds and percussive movement, fusing and expanding to various musical styles from jazz & funk, afro & latin, to his eastern and Balkan roots.

Thanos was a cast member of the dance and music group Cambuyon from Spain, premiered with them on February 2015 at the New Victory Theater in New York (Broadway) and is part of the international show “Body Music: see music, hear dance” under the direction of Keith Terry and Jep Melendez.

He is actively involved in the Athens jazz scene and his collaborations include top greek jazz artists, the Coolspiritrio and his own leading projects Tapmotif Sextet and Acoustic Movement.

He teaches regularly in the artistic space “Playground for the arts”, which he shares with Yiota Peklari (flamenco) and Petros Kourtis (percussion) and is a faculty member of the “Orff Institute in Athens”.

He is also constantly teaching to communities abroad, sharing tradition, concepts and his approaches in countries like USA, Canada, Spain, France, Switzerland, UK, Finland and more.

The live set is followed up by an open jam session, while selected vinyl records of outstanding jazz recordings will be playing from 6pm and throughout the event until the first early-late hours!

Open for dinner at 6 p.m. along with listening to eclectic jazz vinyl albums.

€5 tickets will be available at the door (check the free ticket offer below).
