Day 2 | Momo Festival | Σtella

In Greek songwriter Σtella’s captivating blend of psych-rock, Mediterranean folk and dream pop, you can literally smell the sea air, the sweetness of ouzo on your taste buds and the dizzy spells of unspoken attraction. Her sultry, crisply arranged tunes inspire you to take a breather from life’s familiar strains, through the prism of the quirky, vibrant synth-pop of debut LP ‘The Break’ or the more cinematic seaside scenes of ‘Up And Away’. With the latter, Σtella achieved the milestone of being the first Greek artist to be signed by legendary indie label Sub Pop. And as her career progresses, she continues to find charming ways to complement traditional Greek instrumentation, like the bouzouki, with modern influences. “There is an enchantingly vintage pop sparkle to Σtella’s music” – Loud And Quiet “a series of vivid scenes on a synth-pop canvas that hangs somewhere between the dance floor and the lounge” – Bandcamp Daily
