Ioanna Gika performs at Dior Cruise 2022 show in Greece

Yesterday Greek American artist Ioanna Gika descended the historic steps of the Panathenaic Stadium to the title track of her album Thalassa, before entering the stage to perform new song "Artemis’" for the first time with accompaniment by Oliver Coates and a 70 piece all Greek orchestra. Coates conducted the ensemble through ethereal string renditions of Arca compositions as well as his own compositions, before Ioanna returned to perform a tour de force of her most recognized songs alongside Coates and the orchestra, crescendoing with the incendiary Gika track "Roseate" which she began singing in Greek as fireworks lit up the Athens night in a thrilling finale. “It was extraordinary and meaningful to be able to play in the nation of my ancestry at the ancient Panathenaic Stadium. I was filled with gratitude to perform with exceptional local talents as well as Oliver Coates in a location that carries great personal significance. ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ!” Ioanna Gika is signed to Sargent House and is currently working on her new album.   Watch the Dior Cruise 2022 show featuring Ioanna Gika: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=ifzhxnB2Znk&feature=youtu.be&ab_channel=ChristianDior Listen to Thalassa here: https://ioannagika.bandcamp.com/album/thalassa
