Music Week Presents: Metaxas

Music Week Presents: Metaxas

Metaxas is the kind of artist who will permanently carve his folk & downtempo infused songs in to your psyche. 

Born in New York to Cypriot parents, Metaxas is the eldest of four children. At the very young age of 3, Metaxas showcased a love for singing along to his dad’s favorite records. After spending most of his younger years with his family living in Cyprus, he moved to America at the age of 21 to hone his craft.

Metaxas’ determination and love of music culminated at Berklee College of Music in Boston, where he studied Music Production and Engineering. It was there where his artistry reached its true potential. Metaxas now resides in London. 

With musical influences like Jeff Buckley, Bon Iver and Bonobo, it is no surprise that Metaxas has mastered a writing style that is honest, sensitive and atmospheric. Mixing his raw expressive lyrics with his gravelled, yet warm voice, Metaxas produces a magical union that is nothing short of captivating. 

Metaxas released a 5-song EP titled "Home" while on a month-long tour supporting Ronan Keating. With "Selene" being the standout track on the EP, Metaxas shifted gears with the February 2017 release of the downtempo electro-folk track "Walk", garnering praise and earning a spot on the popular Spotify playlist "Fresh Finds".

Metaxas just put out his first instrumental track titled "The Burner", and will be releasing his next single on May 5th, called "Sirens".

If you ask Metaxas what he wants from his career, his answer is simple. “I want to tour the world, sell records, but most of all; I want my music to speak for itself…”
