Here's a song of his we do together :)

Lefteris Grigoriou is a multi instumentalist, teacher and composer from Athens, Greece. Lefteris has been since 1995 running a percussion school in Athens, called Ta Krousta Tis Taki, where he teaches Djembe and african rhythms as well as greek rhythms and percussion. He travelled a lot thourgh west Africa learning the local music with great teachers. He has played and travelled all over Greece with different groups also playing the Askomadoura and Gaida which are two greek versions of the bagpipe. The last years he has been performing with his Ngoni, a harp from west africa, combining the african rhythms and forms with the greek music and improvised verse singing of fifteen syllables, called Mantinades. So came up the project name Afromantinades!
