TRAP is mainly a live rock band and its members cannot part for long with the stage, whether it is that of a small bar or of a football stadium (not there yet!). Live shows are full of energy, power and emotion, but not at all devoid of lyricism and special musicianship both in cover songs and the band's personal songs.

 

TRAP started their magical music tour in the world in 2001. The band was originally created by Akis Vintzileos, Agis Krimpenis, John Lianos and Akis Tsagarakis and had another name. After few line-up changes, TRAP reached 2007 with the current line-up. All original members and the members that joined thereafter are great musicians with vast musical knowledge and sometimes overwhelming experience in live shows and studio recordings from a very young age.

 

At the beginning, the band was mainly a cover band, performing songs from the Greek music scene, but as time evolved more songs and influences mixed in and, as a result, very interesting songs were composed. At the same time, live shows were the main goal, where the band received raving reviews from fans and the press.

 

Currently (September 2008), TRAP is writing new songs and developing playlists for the upcoming live shows. In the same time, the band has booked a few gigs which will appear soon enough in the site. For now, enjoy our music and have a great time!
