Evripides was born in Cyprus and migrated to Australia at the age of fifteen years old. Since the age of six, he has studied mandolin, piano, clarinet, saxophone, guitar and bass and completed courses in Classical and Jazz guitar. Influenced by the strong rhythms and melodies of a Mediterranean culture, the freedom of Jazz, the discipline and elegance of Classical and Flamenco styles of music, and his deep experiences as a long-term meditator, he has found his 'sound' and fulfillment in expression through his original compositions performed on a vast selection of bass guitars.

Hello, Evripides! May you have a happy, healthy and musical new year! I've recently been at your fellow Cozy Roy's recording studio in Athens where I recorded a few tunes for a couple of forthcoming albums. I was totally amazed by his professionalism, his sound engineering skills and his equipment! And he's quite a dude as well!! He told me to give you his love!! Keep grooving!
