Alexia Vassiliou

Alexia Vassiliou is a versatile Cypriot singer-songwriter, composer, and multimedia artist known for her genre-blending work that dances between jazz, experimental sounds, and Mediterranean musical traditions. With a career spanning over four decades, she first gained recognition in the 1980s as part of the pop duo Alexia & Anna Vissi before carving her own path as a solo artist. Her music often feels like a passport to new sonic landscapes, weaving emotive vocals with improvisational flair – a vibe clearly reflected in her recent *Improvisation Series* releases, which showcase spontaneous collaborations ranging from piano dialogues to atmospheric guitar-and-voice explorations.

Beyond studio work, Vassiliou thrives in interdisciplinary spaces, composing for film (like the sultry *Jeux D'amour* for *Poker Face*) and collaborating with visual artists. She’s become a cultural bridge-builder, infusing her projects with themes of identity and heritage while keeping things refreshingly unpredictable – whether she’s channeling the urgency of *Birds Have to Fly* or the intimate heartbeat rhythms of her improvisational pieces. Her work feels less like a catalog and more like an ongoing conversation between voice, instrument, and imagination.
