| Performance Notes | As an Afro-Grecian living in London, Yots K has a rich mix of influences to draw on. From the Greek rebetika, so close to the American blues, to Latin and African pulsations. She progressed from Elvis to admiring a range of early jazz singers and musicians, in particular Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughn, Dizzy Gillespie and Miles Davis. She has performed in Atlanta Georgia, Glasgow, Derby, France, South Africa and Greece as well as all over London with a particular highlight being a performance to thousands at the Mayor's West End Live series. |
