Villagers of Ioannina City

Villagers of Ioannina City, as the name suggests, hail from the Greek Ioannina; in their music they draw handfuls from the rich musical tradition of the region, known for its unique harmonies and rhythms. The Villagers weave these influences into a formula of dreamy stoner rock, with instrumentation enriched by clarinet, bagpipes and kaval, building the sonic equivalent of wandering the sun-dried, vast mountain land of Epirus. The band has been active since 2007; since then they have released three albums, the most recent of which is 2019's Age of Aquarius, seeing them reduce the influence of traditional music and turned to grandiose post-rock compositions.
