MAROULITA DE KOL

Athens-raised Maroulita de Kol creates music formed from the ancient rites and practices of Greece, newly re-presented through a contemporary lens. A former student of classical piano and voice, an unbreakable bond with her homeland yielded an extensive and ongoing dive into the mythologies, arts and storytelling of ancestral Greece. These studies eventually guided her to the debut solo works that make up EP Anatélo and full-length album Anásana released by UK label Phantom Limb in 2023. Lyrical and ecstatic melodies decorated in the Greek language clothed with meditative electronic ambient music – taking place in a blissful world of birdsong and salt air, sunbaked caves and blue skies.

A founding member of Reverse Mode (album Mora 2018), Arcangel Trio (album Golden Sheep 2022) Twin Flames Ensemble and Farmagia Ensemble, de Kol has performed all around Europe, and has composed music for theatre pieces, performances, films, and documentaries. Her music is primal and stirringly modern.

She believes in the healing power of art.
