"My vision has always been to make a positive difference in the world through music," Niko said. "I decided to remove the biggest obstacle that was keeping the world from hearing my songs - money."
The Greek artist, and Nashville resident, amassed a loyal following of fans over the past few years, mostly in Europe and Asia. Niko's sound is generally pop oriented infused with influences of rock, R&B, jazz and soul. But what stands out immediately, and with lasting effect, is his splendid - some say angelic - voice. While many of Niko's songs are well produced and executed, it is undoubtably his soothing, soulful voice that most people will remember.
Take as an example his current single, “Fly Away", with its seductive and breath-taking qualities or "The Sun The Moon The Stars", infused with all of the elements that make a pop hit. No wonder he was offered a major label deal. And the fact that he turned it down to instead distribute his music for free makes his music just that much more special. Most people would have taken the money and never looked back.
