Bios Rooftop presents the trio IDISIDISIDIS, a new musical partnership of Panagiotis Melidis (Larry Gus) on organ, Michalis Siganidis on double bass and Giorgos Stavridis on drums.

Their music moves freely between improvisation, the folk tradition of Roumlouki and the strict lines of French Baroque. Their songs, with lyrics-poems by Michalis Siganidis and Efthimis Philippou, emerge through a hybrid of rhythm, humor and ritual abstraction.
