About Me |
|
| MoreMusic is a small yet effective company which deals with Artists management in Greece and does promotions in various ways, above or below the line, concerts & events promo, radio & record labels promo etc. BRIEF STORY MoreMusic started in spring 2005 when signed the english speaking alt.rock band, Film, the pop punk/emo act, Suave Gap and the electro duo, Gad, continuing with the Greek speaking pop/rock artist, Kostas Chronopoulos. December 2006, new signings were very importand with the quite experimental trip hop/indie funk group Expert Medicine and the very successful indie band Matisse! Together with Expert Medicine we did their only Greek tour and 2 very successful shows in Athens before they kicked out their singer and fade out in June 2007. Gad,also through MoreMusic,established a name in the live circuit and signed at Shift Records from where they released their debut album in December 2007. August 2007 MoreMusic left Film after major changes in the band which left lead singer, Eleni Tzavara, out of the band. As a result MoreMusic singed a contract for Management of Eleni's solo career! In 2008 MoreMusic created a large and successful tour for Matisse making them an established act in Greek live scene. Together we did over 40 shows in Greece and 10 in the UK, and only in 7 months. Contract with Matisse expires September 2008 and the band enters the studio for a new record.
