Kostas Bezos

Con Kalamaras delves into the music of mysterious Singer/Songwriter Kostas Bezo, one of the most enigmatic Greek rebetiko artists of all time.
Renowned for his slide guitar playing in his Hawaiian-style orchestras of the 30s, Bezos also recorded under the secret darker moniker, “Kostis”.
Kostis signatory music embodied black-humor lyrics, chronicling hash dens, prison culture and pickpockets of old Athens. His true identity surfaced after his premature death.
