JOAKEM:
Joakem (Stelios Ioakim) is a Cyprus based composer, singer and keyboardist whose music is a blend of intricate melodies, complex time signatures, heavy synth sounds, crushing guitar riffs, atmospheric themes and diverse vocals.
Originally a classical pianist from the age of 6, Joakem started expanding his skills after becoming a member of several bands since 2009, some of which are active to this day. He gradually evolved to become a sound-exploring keyboardist, vocalist and composer with influences ranging from progressive rock, metal, ambient, classical, jazz and fusion music.
He gained international publicity after being the finalist of The Voice of Greece, taking second place. In February of 2018 he released his first solo work, the progressive rock single called “The Path” followed by his second single released in November 2018 titled “Generation Z”. On December 7th 2018 he will release his debut 8 track album, titled “Mind Matter”.
