about

Reviewing 2016’s Waiting in No Depression, Jason D. Hamad coined the term “Greco-Americana” for Papadimas’ style, considering it “a musical portmanteau inspired by his own background.” Further discussing Papadimas’ craft, Hamad mentions “wistful, philosophical lyrics” which “continue to generate songs that keep the listener engaged and thinking.”

Describing the EP, Papadimas said, “It’s a sampler and showcase of what the band has been working on. It features the stylistic range of the songs that I’m writing — ‘Still The Same’ is very much an Americana song, ‘Lucky You’ is a ballad, ‘Tension’ is folk rock, ‘Somehow’ features the Greek influences mixed with Americana and ‘How Long’ captures the energy of the band onstage doing a rootsier kind of song.”

The musical strengths on the EP can be attributed to Papadimas having a consistent band lineup for a year. Drummer Ralph Rich, a mainstay since 2012, links up with bassist Corey Gray for a solid rhythmic foundation while Caitlin Hedge adds a down-home element on violin and Dave Lynn offers tasty guitars solos and “invaluable” input on arrangements.
