Stelios Maximos
STELIOS MAXIMOS
Born in Athens in 1980 he did not take long to express his love for music and singing.
He sais he has three “birthplaces”: Athens, where he was born, Thessaloniki, his father’s birthplace and Naxos, his mother’s birthplace.
His father, Dimitris Vyzas. is one of the most important and famous players of bouzouki (he worked with the best greek singers like Stelios Kazantzidis, Panos Gavalas, Litsa Diamanti, Eleni Vitali, e.t.c.) and his grandmother is the most important and famous greek singers in tradiotional music, Eirini Konitopoulou Legaki.
Stelios Maximos studied music and begun singing professionally from his 20 years.
Since his first contact with singing, he expressed his love for the greek kind of music “laiko” and he became well known for the mature and special colour of his voice!
His first album “M agapaei o Theos teleftaia” (“God loves me lately”) was produced in March of 2006. The homonymous song was a great succes and introduced him to the audience, while two more songs, “Harismena” (Given away”) and “Mi mou les” (“Don’t tell me”) became very popular too! At the same time these three successful songs were visualized by some of the greatest directors in greek music industry.
During this time he worked with Nikos Makropoulos and Eirini Merkouri (summer 2006), Giorgos Mazonakis in Thessaloniki, Panos Kiamos in 2006-2007 and the summer of the same year again with Giorgos Mazonakis and Tamta. During this course, when all these important singers trusted him a significant role in their shows, he proved his vocal capabilities and performance as a singer.
His second album “Otan fevgw den ksanagyrnaw” (“When I leave I never come back”) was produced in April 2007 with very important lyricists and composers. This album finds him more mature concerning his choices in songs. They are even more “suitable” for him and they are characterised for their sensitivity and their extroversion. From this album three great radio succesful songs were heard all over Greece. “Poia stigmi” (“When?”), “Ti mou xeis kanei” (“What have you done to me”), and “Pos” (“How”) which were all also visualised from the best directors in Greece.
The winter finds him in the best show of Athens in “FEVER” CLUB with Giorgos Mazonakis and Nikos Makropoulos while this summer he works with one of the best women singers, Natasa Theodoridou making the tour of Greece!
With his first album we discovered a very good young singer while with the second one a significant singer candidate for a special future!
Currently, Stelios Maximos is travelling with Despina Vandi in USA and CANADA to give 5 concerts in TORONTO, MONTREAL, ATLANTIC CITY, CHICAGO and CONNECICUT
