Melios Balkana Mama are a 9-member music group that started their “journey” in the music world in July 2011. Within a short period of time they have caused quite a stir in the Greek music scene with the plurality of their sound as well as their inspired remixes that redefine the Balkan/Ethnic element in a joyful and up-lifting way.

At the moment they are at the studio working on their first album to be released soon.
