Artist Life Stories Series - Pavlo

Doors Open: 7:30pm

Show Starts: 8:00pm

Welcome to an evening of animated conversation interspersed with incredible music. Like a perfectly mixed cocktail - two parts conversation, one part live music, one part question and answer . Pavlo will play some of his trademark guitar music that is described as “a Mediterranean sound mixing the folkloric styles of Greek and Latin music with pop sensibilities.” So you will hear music with elements of Latin, jazz, Greek, folk, World and more! Hosted by Cameron Smillie.

For being all instrumental, Pavlo’s Mediterranean music speaks for itself. Over the span of his 20-year career, Pavlo, the internationally renowned, award-winning recording artist, performer and songwriter, has released 15 albums to include 4 PBS TV concert Specials.

Born in Toronto to Greek parents, Pavlo has made a name for himself by offering a musical amalgam he simply calls “Mediterranean music” – a blend of Greek, flamenco, Latin, and even Balkan flavours, wrapped in contemporary pop. His music has taken him all around the world. Along the way he’s performed for royalty in the likes of Prince Charles and worked and toured with artists such as José Feliciano, Jon Secada, Olivia Newton-John and The Tenors.

It has never been more convincing, Pavlo is a TRUE WORLD artist, and has become famous for bringing every audience to their feet.

Pavlo is currently on tour promoting his fourth PBS special “Live in Santorini” and is still driven by his father’s famous words:

“Have the courage to do what you love, and the drive to do it well.”
