Drawing its members from the city's professional music scene, the band started out as a "best kept secret" which quickly spread through word of mouth among college students and young professionals. It became the first local act to perform contemporary Greek music in a dedicated live-music venue in Manhattan, receiving rave reviews for introducing timeless Greek songs in a way that authentically combined art and entertainment. The two dimensions were considered mutually exclusive until the band appeared in New York's Greek music scene. The journey continues... www.synolon.com FAREWELL EXCURSION AT STEEL PIER WWW.STEELPIER.COM Steel Pier offers fun for everyone!
