• About Horostalites

Horostalites were created in December 2013 by Vassilis Messaritakis in order to accompany the dance group of the Panicarian Association “Artemis Tavropolis” in its dance and musical events.

They adapt traditional songs from different corners of Greece, putting their own signature trying to preserve much of what has been lost over the years. On the traditional sound color they create their own compositions, lyrics and music, that is, they take their own new steps on old paths.

Their musical journey beyond traditional music extends its notes to great composers, songwriters and performers of the folk, rebetiko and artistic repertoire with songs that seal the Greek Pentagram.
