Description:
Sound Effect Records presents "Paggaidelic", a CD-only introduction to the mystical, wonderful world of Seirios Savvaidis. Comprised of songs taken from his five solo albums, soon to be released on vinyl by Sound Effect, "Paggaidelic" is the definitive guide to a new kind of love! The Dead Ends guitarist employs stark, ritualistic percussion and repetitive beats, bagpipes, polyphonic ensembles, poetic lyrics and Homeric hymns, earthly and heavenly elements in a psychedelic roller coaster! With a Nick Drake-meets-Bill Callahan sweet surrender, Seirios sings about other-worldly creatures, stars and enchanting pathways, like a moonlit night's logbook from Mount Paggaio.
Seirios Savvaidis is a musician and singer/songwriter born in Kavala, Greece, on March 10, 1980. He is a self-taught musician, playing bouzouki and guitar since he was 7 years old.

His music, influenced by the Greek and Celtic musical traditions and the contemporary psych- rock scene, is characterized by his poetic lyricism and distinctive expressive style, shaping up his own unique, mind-expanding take on modern acid-folk.
