Evripidis and his Tragedies began as a personal musical project of Evripidis playing his piano and singing back in Athens. He did some very rough recordings at the asthmatic hammond of Toynbee Hall in London and at friends..houses in his hometown, a long time ago. When he moved to Barcelona he started doing concerts alone, mostly in seedy bars but soon he discovered that his girlfriends Marisol ( from the groups Eleva, Elevator), Odil and Annie (from the group How dare U!) and Nora had all fantastic voices and a lot of talent. During the same time Cristina joined on violin, providing her dark wave-meets-baroque touch. Later there was Iker (from the groups Mus, Las Esferas Invisibles) on bass and occasional guitar and Jaume on drums ( although he was not a drummer, but that was the brilliant thing...he used to play keyboards with the Epic Kind). So, depending on the venue, the circumstances and the way the stars would align or the wind would blow, Evripidis and his Tragedies were (and still are) a one-man show or a crowded scene.
