pAVLO PERFORMANCE CENTRE Thursday, March 1 • 8pm • $45 Pavlo is an internationally renowned, award-winning recording artist, performer and songwriter. In his 20-year career, he has released 11 albums of original music, plus collaborative projects including 2015’s Guitarradas with Remigo Pereira, and 2009’s Trifecta with fellow guitar masters Rik Emmett and Oscar Lopez. Born in Toronto to Greek parents, Pavlo has made a name for himself by offering a musical amalgam he simply calls “Mediterranean music” – a blend of Greek, flamenco, Latin, and Balkan flavours, wrapped in contemporary pop. His music has taken him all around the world. Along the way he’s performed for royalty such as Prince Charles and worked and toured with artists such as José Feliciano, Jon Secada, Olivia Newton-John and The Tenors. Pavlo is a true world artist, and has become famous for bringing every audience to their feet. Pavlo is currently on tour promoting his second PBS special Live in Kastoria, and is still driven by his father’s famous words: “Have the courage to do what you love, and the drive to do it well.”

The man who is often referred to as the “architect of Canadian rock ‘n’ roll” has earned over 120 gold and platinum album/singles awards around the world.
