Zeeya
Genre : Music - Folk/blues/world
Zeeya are a dynamic, experimental guitar-violin duo based in London, playing a repertoire of pre-war (WWII) Rebetiko and Greek folk music. The ‘Laiki kithara’ (folk guitar) and the violin became increasingly important instruments in the urban folk music of the early 20th century in Greece and minor Asia. With musicians such as Antonis Dalgas, and Spyros Peristeris, the guitar breaks away from its monotonous rhythmic role and explores a plethora of melodic and rhythmic approaches. The violin acts as a second voice guiding and supporting vocals through lyrics that are very expressive, often long stories about love and despair, rejection and death. Departing from Smyrna (Izmir) in early 1900s, where numerous cultures were once intertwined, we will bring Zeeya’s interpretation of this musical heritage to London 2026.
Friendly pub with great atmosphere. Superb food and a good selection of wine and beer. Events in The Basement most nights and on the ground floor on Sundays.
