   About Panagos Valsamis

Plays drums. Composes music. Does studio work. Multi-instrumentalist. Performs many styles. Performs with people more famous than himself. Makes films. World traveler. Not native to North America. Refers to himself in the third person. Some have written about him:

"inventive throughout, especially as a soloist" - Dan Warburton - Bagatellen

"a 'ride' cymbal that careens through city streets at twice the speed of sound" - George Lewis

"Valsamis exercises supple strength with sticks and serves in a similar capacity as propulsive force. He also acts as a crafty coloring agent when emphasis switches to atmospheric extrapolation. " - Derek Taylor All About Jazz

"Valsamis responds with drumming that slashes across the kit, laying out open pointillistic colors in the quiet sections and then building to lithe cascades." - Michael Rosenstein - One Final Note

"the real suprise of the show was drummer Peter Valsamis. After hearing him play, now I can understand how he was picked to play with Cecil Taylor." - posted by Michael on freejazz.org

Ever heard a single violinist sound like 12?

Recently, I added a new song to my music player called, "Always" which might be one of the best songs I've written so far. Tthe chorus was scored for an entire violin section, however, in studio, I had one violinist, Jan "Yes I Can" Sullins. I asked her to single handedly create the sound of a "Hollywood style" string section. This is almost like telling someone, "Please jump rope one handed 10 times while monkeys nip at your feet."

Lucky for me, Jan worked some magic and now you can hear it on track 1 in my music player. It's called "Always" and is from my upcoming album, "Awakening," to be released June 16th.

Thanks and have fun!
