The most successful contemporary Greek song writer and producer, Phoebus, was born on New Year’s Day in 1971, in Athens. He first got into music during his school years when as a drummer in a rock band – genuinely expressing his generation- he experimented with the music fads of the time.
Despite his effortless entry into University in one of the top spots of the Athens Law School, the prospect of following a career in law failed to deter Phoebus from his passionate involvement in music and thus he began to compose his first songs.
While studying harmony and music at the Conservatory and taking private tutorials by Themis Roussos, he started writing his first lyrics. His talent quickly came to the fore, aged only 22 he singed his first contract with a record label.
Already at the start of the second decade of his amazing career, Phoebus has pulled off a remarkable record accomplishment. With over 18 gold LP's and cd singles, 19 platinum, 11 albums that are two times platinum, 2 four times platinum and 1 six times platinum albums under his belt – that is, more than 3,500,000 units sold overall- he has achieved phenomenal status in the Greek music history.
