Early life

[edit]

Perris was born and raised in Athens to a Greek father and a French mother, the novel writer Joelle Lopinot–Mastrantoni. Perris studied Greek literature, Ancient Greek, and Latin at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.[1]

Career

[edit]

2005–2008: Debut solo album and early years

[edit]

Perris' performing career began at the age of 18, when he was invited to tour with composer Mimis Plessas. He was featured on Plessas' 2006 album Mimis Plessas and the Jazz Quartet Live. His first solo album, Kainouria mou mera (My new day) was released in 2005 by EMI and included the hit songs "Pezi o erotas" which was the theme song from the TV series "Erotas", as well as "Karavani" which was included in a compilation created by Radio Française.

The following year, he toured with acclaimed Greek tenor Mario Frangoulis. Frangoulis invited him back for his "Mario & Friends" performance series at the Athens Arena where he appeared on stage with international artists such as Lucio Dalla, Justin Hayward, Madeleine Peyroux, Lara Fabian and Frances Ruffelle. As a result, 2 live albums were released in 2008 and 2009, Mario & Friends 1 and Mario & Friends 2 which were both certified platinum album. In April 2008, Perris also released his second studio album Pairno anasa with Sony Music. The album featured Stis gis tin akri, a duet with Mario Frangoulis. He wrote and composed almost half of the songs on that record. Perris continued touring in 2009, performing in Greece, Cyprus and Turkey.

2009–2011: First appearances outside of Greece

[edit]

In 2009, international diva Lara Fabian invited him to open some concerts of her 2009 European tour, including 2 sold-out performances at the Zénith Paris.[2][3] During the same year, he also performed in Boston, as a guest of the Greek Institute, and also in St. Petersburg, Russia and London with the Oxford Philomusica.

In 2010, Perris performed again in the US as part of Frangoulis' "Light of Greece" tour,[4] performing concerts in Chicago, Boston and New York. He also traveled to Canada, as a guest of Stephan Moccio, performing at the Place des Arts in Montreal. Perris appeared in a 2010 production of Mikis Theodorakis' adaptation of March of the Spirit (poetry: Angelos Sikelianos). This show was performed in both Greece and Turkey, as part of an attempt to improve international relations between the two countries.

In 2011, Perris was invited by Stephan Moccio to participate in a concert in Toronto, Canada. He also performed with soprano Deborah Myers in Athens.[5][6][7][8] This concert was broadcast on national television. In the summer, Perris toured with Mario Frangoulis in Turkey and a few months later he took part in a tribute concert to Mimis Plessas. He also recorded the a cappella single "Humana" adapted by Women of the World which was released the same year.

2012–2013: French album Un souhait and "LIVE" album in Greece

[edit]

In the spring of 2012, he released his third studio album Un Souhait in Canada. The album included 11 new songs in French, composed for him by some of the most acclaimed French-speaking songwriters as well as Ma Solitude, a duet with Belgian superstar Lara Fabian.[9][10]

In June, he shared the stage with Mario Frangoulis, Hayley Westenra and Alkistis Protopsalti at the Boston Symphony Hall with the Boston Pops Orchestra under the baton of Keith Lockhart.[11] The same concert was performed in Athens, Greece at the Herod Atticus Theatre.[12][13]

In October of the same year, he performed with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra conducted by Robert Baker.

The release of the Un souhait album earlier in 2012 in Canada led to the Un Souhait Tour presented by the Horatio Alger Association for whom Perris serves as an International Ambassador. The last show of the tour was filmed and released on the Live à Montréal DVD exclusively on his website.[14][15]

In December, George Perris returned to Greece and released a new "Live" album produced by Alkistis Protopsalti. The album included various Greek, French and English classics that Perris had performed live over the last 2 years.[16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] [30]

In 2013, Perris toured extensively with Alkistis Protopsalti in Greece and Cyprus as well as performing in Montreal, Canada and Pasadena, California.

2014–2015: Debut English album Picture This

His debut PBS special "Live from Jazz at Lincoln Center" was aired on PBS in the US from November 2015 to March 2016 to great success, allowing him to bring his "Picture This Tour" in the U.S. for the first time.[54] [55] [56] [57]

2016: Return to Greece: "Kivotos" Album

[edit]

In April 2016, he announced on his official page on Facebook that he was recording an album of duets with fellow Greek tenor Mario Frangoulis and then touring Greece and Cyprus together.[58] The album "Kivotos" / "Ark" was released on 1 May in Greece through the newspaper "Kathimerini" selling more than 65000 copies in one day. Subsequently, it was released in a deluxe package on 10 May in Greece and Cyprus, skyrocketing to No. 4 on the Greek album charts where it remained for 4 weeks.[59] [60] [61] Perris embarked on a joint summer tour of Greece and Cyprus with Mario Frangoulis, playing in more than 17 dates. [62] [63] [64] [65]

Perris and Frangoulis ended their joint tour with a sold-out performance at the historic Odeon of Herodes Atticus under the Acropolis in Athens with special guests Jorge Calandrelli and Tina Arena. The concert was called "Mediterranea" and was filmed for American Public Television. Perris performed 3 new songs from his upcoming English album to be released in 2017.[66][67][68] Following the performance, critics wrote that Perris stole the performance and was the apocalypse of the evening.[69][70]

In November, he performed with Michel Legrand as a special guest of the legendary composer's concerts in Moscow, at the Crocus City Hall and St. Petersburg at Oktbryasky Hall.[71][72][73][74]

In September, he became the first singer in Greek history to film a concert on the grounds of an ancient temple, the temple of Aphaea on the island of Aegina in his home country, Greece. The TV special, under the title "A Sunset In Greece", was produced in collaboration with the Greek National Tourism Organization to promote Greece around the world.[89][90][91] Mario Frangoulis and Evanthia Reboutsika appeared as special guests on the performance.

A year after its filming, "A Sunset In Greece" started airing on PBS stations across the US, reaching more than 100 million viewers in its first 2 months of airing, making it Perris' most successful TV Special to date.[92][93]

In December 2021, he was chosen by the Grammy Awards for their "Global Spin" video series, which showcases international artists. Perris performed his upcoming title "No Armor" under the Acropolis, promoting his country.[94]

In March 2022, he released his 3rd English album, "No Armor". The album included mostly covers of songs that had influenced Perris' musicality, as well as English translations of 3 of his Greek songs.[95][96] In April, he collaborated once again with the Grammy Awards, releasing a cover of Mariah Carey's "Butterfly" for their "Reimagined at home" series.

Artistry

[edit]

Personal life

[edit]

In March 2022, Perris came out as gay during an interview with People magazine. He explained that he finally felt ready to do it after years of fearing it might hurt his career, but mainly as he wanted to be a positive influence on young people, filling a void that existed when he was growing up.[104][105]
