Tsamiko is a traditional Greek dance, in the past it was danced almost exclusively by men, but in modern times both men and women take part. This dance is strongly reminiscent of the 1821 era in Greek history. In group performances the dancers dress in the traditional Greek Fustanella. Today Tsamiko is a popular dance in festivals, weddings and special Greek events as it was performed by our friends at Kypseli Greek Dance Center in Sherman Oaks, California on August 17, 2012. Music was performed by Nick Dakis (aka Nikos Pourpourakis), bouzouki, and Harry Chryssafis, guitar and joining on the singing Yannis Papachristos.
