Offering their services at very reasonable rates, The Helios Band is ready to rock some Greek socks off at every special event, from weddings to baptisms to birthdays. 

The Band -
Michael Mavroudis started playing music by the time he reached 6 years of age and was a founding member of the Greek Compania. On the piano, sits Michael Garibaldi, rockin' the keys since he was 9 and has spent time directing Greek folk dances in San Francisco. Lefteri Tsacle grew his classical violin roots early, starting at age 8 and later playing Greek folk music with ensembles like Helenic Folk. At the helm of lead vocals, Tasso Mavroudis is also an accomplished musician, with a specialty in percussion. Following in the footsteps of her family members, Irene Mavroudis joined the band in 2012 and is the newest member to pay tribute to her Greek heritage. Playing guitar and joining the group in 2011, George Mavroudis embraces his heritage and creates original compositions.
