Svoura plays for the refugees

On June 16, 2022, Svoura joins forces with Bilda, the cultural union that hosts our gigs, for a live concert dedicated to refugees forced to flee from their homes in Ukraine due to the Russian invasion. The event is broadcasted on live streaming and the crowd is prompted to extend their donations to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNCHR) through Bilda’s fundraising campaign.

The venue gets covered with music varying from swing & lindy hop tunes, to love ballads and psychedelic rock loops. Svoura shares its part with selected melodies from the Greek folklore song pool, focused on compositions from the “entehno” and rebetiko repertoire.
