Angelika studied classical music at Brown University in the USA and at the London Centre of Contemporary Music in the UK, where she developed her songwriting abilities.
Her first single “Love on your own terms” from the EP “Telling Stories” and her hit single “Beautiful Love” (a co-operation with Greece’s most famous DJs Playmen) have both reached high airplay in the Greek radio stations. Angelika has performed at major Greek festivals, TV shows and in many live stages: opening for Boy George and Simple Minds at En Lefko Festival, opening for Kovacs (2015 & 2016) before an audience of 4000 people, opening for LP and Monophonics (2017) etc.
During the summer of 2017, Angelika was in the line-up of some of the country’s finest summer festivals (Matala Beach Festival, UP Festival, River Party). From November until December 2017 Angelika participated in the rock tribal musical HAIR that was presented in Greece for the first time. She also appeared as an opening act at Kaleo’s concerts in Athens and in Thessaloniki.
She is well received by the Greek media with interviews in some of the most important newspapers, magazines, internet sites, blogs and portals. She has also done unplugged gigs on most major Greek radio stations (Red FM, Rock FM, Hit FM, Vima FM, En Lefko FM). Her work has been promoted in both RISE (former MTV) and Mad TV –Greece’s biggest music television channels– as well as in very important TV channels such as SKAI TV and Nova TV (http://angelikadusk.com/press/).
Her main influences are Florence and the Machine, Bjork, Etta James, Massive Attack, the Rolling Stones among others.
Angelika has just released her second album “Beautiful Mess”, a work through which she contemplates the balance between self-preservation and self-destruction through a pop-rock sound. Two of her new songs have already been singled out and played at major radio stations in Athens(EN LEFKO, PEPPER, ROCK FM, MUSIC) and Thessaloniki (1055 ROCK, FLY).
