Countdown to the Great Concert Tribute to Vasilis Carras
On June 13, colleagues, friends and all his music family unite at a huge concert in the flagship venue of the Kallimarmar Stadium to fulfill a dream of the great folk singer who died in December 2023.
Despite his enormous love in Northern Greece and Kavala, his place of origin, the ever -subversive Vasilis Karras was desirable to climb the stage of the historic stage in the heart of Athens, thereby joining his audience « from the north to the south ». It is recalled that the net revenue of the concert will be donated to the institutions: affection (Association of Friends of Cancer Children), Tempi (Association of Tempea Coast), Agios Panteleimonas (Elderly Social Welfare Center).
People from all over Greece, having in their hearts the lord of the folk song, will sing the great successes of Basil, with the apostate contribution of big names who had the honor of working together with him and / or on stage.
This great venture is the minimum tribute that could be attributed to the great music persona that did not see its songs, but also the feast of the popular feeling flooding the Kallimaros area.
Honoring himself and the charity work that the singer supported while he was alive, friends, acquaintances, associates, and people who continue to admire him to this day, they will join forces and their voices for a night that is expected to be historic and very moving.
Vasilis Karras was one of the most beloved and authentic faces of Greek music history. With his dedication to folk song, his honestness and special complexion, he managed to unite not only generations but also different peoples through his songs. An interpreter who left his own truth indelible has never been compatible, and despite his accomplishments- who arrived at the Guinness Book of Records- remained as simple and humble.
So on June 13, Kallimarmaro is expected to be filled with a crowd of people who will help Vasilis Carras’ dream reach even higher, on a night that will not be a simple « goodbye » but a big « thank you » for what he was ambassador and left. Indeed, just before this great concert at the Panathenaic Stadium artists, they talk about the inimitable performer, his musical heritage, and what Vasilis Karras means to them!
The concert participates in alphabetical order: Konstantinos Argyros, Despina Vandi, Katie Garbis, Christos Dantis, Stelios Dionysiou, Peggy Zina, George Kakosaios, Nikos Makropoulos, Paola Paola, Paola Tsachouridis, Dimitris Chrysochoidis.
