Klavdia

Although only 22 years old, Klavdia revealed her great performing talent from a young age, taking part in “The Voice of Greece”, where she reached the final with Helena Paparizou’s team.

In the following years, she continued to enchant with live performances. Among others, she appeared alongside the great artist Dionysis Savvopoulos at the Mad Video Music Awards, together with Konstantinos Argyros and in concerts with Giorgos Sampanis.

In 2022, she released with Arcade Music and Panik Records, her first single titled “Lonely Heart” which became No. 1 on the Shazam Discovery list. The 2x platinum single “Haramata” followed and after a year her first EP titled her name, KLAVDIA. She also collaborates with successful DJs and music producers such as Playmen and Valeron, covering international dance hits of the ‘00s, through their own unique musical prism (“Touch me” & “Movin’ Too Fast”).

She is particularly popular on Social Media and specifically on TikTok (200,000 followers), where with her very successful covers she managed to enchant even the famous pop star, Christina Aguilera.

In 2023 she won the award for the Best Newcomer at the Cyprus awards, Super Music Awards 2023.

«Asteromata» – Lyrics

My star,

My star,

My sweet mother, do not weep,
Though they dress you in mourning black.
This faded, weary body of mine,
No flame can ever crack.

The swallows born of fire’s embrace,
No matter how far they roam,
Shall never forget the sacred earth
That once they called their home.

Oh, my little starry-eyed one,
Lean, let me kiss you.
Upon your holy tears of light,
Let my parched lips rest anew.

Oh, my little starry-eyed one,
Lean, let me hold you.
Let these weary, forgotten wings
Find their last breath upon you.

Ah, my star, my precious light…

My sweet mother, do not weep,
My life’s a vessel, drifting free,
Forever searching for its home,
The wind, its sail at sea.

Oh, my little starry-eyed one,
Lean, let me hold you.
Let these weary, forgotten wings
Find their last breath upon you.

Ah, my star, my precious light…
Ah, my star, my precious light…

My star…
