And a little about Joanne…

Joanne Xenidis is a young Greek Australian living the life that many singers could only ever dream of - she is releasing a debut album after much success with a global single.

Xenidis has been vocally trained since she was just seven years old and enjoyed a very musical childhood.

For as long as she can remember her grandfather was absorbed in traditional Greek music and Byzantine chanting.

His passion for these traditional sounds undeniably influenced her relationship with the artistic form she subsequently pursued.

How long did it take you to write your debut album 'Genesis'?

“I poured my heart and soul into for the past two years. I directed the album the way I wanted it to sound” Xenidis said. “Every song is different and the final product can best be described as a mixed bag of lollies.”

What is the symbolic nature of the word 'Genesis' to your art?

“I was making this album during a Venus moon phase of my life, and this inspired the name - the act of an old world passing away and a new world being born, “ Xenidis said.

Who did you collaborate with in making the album?

"Along my journey, I collaborated with accomplished producers Tim Henwood (Androids) and Michael Stangel and Dean Wells who are all internationally recognised musicians and writers."

Thank you for the time taken to do this interview Joanne! We (GreekCentral) wish you all the best in your musical journey!

"And I thank you too!"
