George Perris was born in Athens in 1983, his father is Greek and mother is French. In addition to launching his music career, he is working on his third CD while studying ancient Greek literature at the University of Athens.
At a very early age, Perris decided he wanted to become a singer, and began studying piano. From the age of 14, he began to seriously pursue performing, and at age 18, the famous Greek composer Mimis Plessas discovered his talent, and invited him to tour all over Greece and Cyprus.
His first solo album “My New Day“” (EMI) was released shortly thereafter, featuring compositions by the famous Stefanos Korkolis, and a Greek version of “Caravane”, Raphael’s major European hit. In the summer of 2006, Perris joined the international tenor Mario Frangoulis on a tour throughout Greece.
He continued to perform jazz with Mimis Plessas which led to his participation on the album “Mimis Plessas & The Jazz Quartet”. Perris has performed at some of the most prestigious concert halls in Greece and Cyprus (Megaron Mousikis, Red, House of Art, Stavros Tou Notou, Zoom).
