GEORGE SKAROULIS, without formal training in either music theory or notation, began playing the piano at the young age of five. He creates music that evokes the essence of beauty. His expression of sound is soothing and inspirational, embodied by the ambient piano that has become his familiar trademark. Inspired by artists including David Foster, Mark Isham, Vangelis, Chris Spheeris, Yanni and Jim Brickman. Skaroulis continues to create and experiment with his passion for music. With five albums to his credit, Skaroulis' music can be heard on radio stations, webcasts and in numerous film documentaries for Public Broadcasting.
CHRIS SPHEERIS, a multi-instrumentalist, composer and recording artist, has inspired and captivated worldwide listeners with his music for more than 25 years. Being raised in the Midwestern USA and spending summers in his ancestral homeland of Greece, the cross-cultural foundation of his expression was in place long before his first melodies were ever written. At 19, inspired by Joni Mitchell, early Genesis, Cat Stevens, the Talking Heads and other visionaries of the era, Spheeris along with friend, Paul Voudouris, entertained and inspired restaurant, coffeehouse, symphony, and college audiences with a blend of all original music and lyrics that were progressive and unique. At age 25, Spheeris set up a studio, bought his first keyboards, and embarked on his own blend of instrumental music that would help found a new musical genre of New Age. Within three years of the inception of his solo career, Chris caught the attention of Columbia Records and went on to become one of the first New Age instrumentalists to be signed to a major label. Over the next 15 years, with 10 new recordings, Spheeris has developed a signature style of cross-cultural, romantic instrumental music imbued with a quality that is at once, intimate, exotic, passionate and universal.
