About

Dilemma

DILEMMA were founded by Poppy Dalachani and Sotiris Tragas in Athens, Greece. The two musicians made their recording debut in 2009 and their first album was a sensation. The duo was characterized as one of the most significant and original groups in the music scene, due to their instrumental composition and their distinctive delivery. In their musical performances Dilemma take the audience on a rich journey of sounds and words, to an original musical universe that they create and recreate mysteriously. They mix elements of melodicism and improvisation and with their captivating performances they unfold emotions from dark introspection to the brightest lyricism. Their musical references combine elements from classical, jazz, world music, ambient as well as modern experimental techniques. They have performed live in music venues in Athens, in cities across Greece, and at festivals abroad, and have written music for visual and theatrical events. Their performances can be combined with many forms of art, such as literature, video art, theater, visual arts, and are sometimes accompanied by a dance group or vocal ensemble.
