Jannis, Ilias & Emmanuel join us for chat, playing and fun!

Welcome to the show! We are delighted to welcome our great friends Jannis Anastasakis, Ilias Pantoleon and Emmanuel Vourakis from JAM Pedals to Schwangri-La.
Regular viewers will know that we have a special relationship with JAM, not least because of our collaboration on the Harmonious Monk pedal. Its very existence is evidence of the deep respect we have for the inspirational art and craft that emanates from their facility in Athens, Greece.
While they were visiting the UK to see Blur at Wembley and take in a few dealers along the way, we thought it would be only proper to get them into the studio to talk… and play!

There are English language captions available if you find Jannis (or me and Dan) hard to understand.

The first track Jannis plays at 0:35 is a version of the track 'Agrypnia' by Greek songwriter Thanasis Papakonstantinou
You can see more of Jannis' personal music stuff at www.jannisanastasakis.com

Jannis also mentions an artist with whom he plays; Dan and I attended a gig. The artist is Michalis Siganidis.

Enjoy the show!
