Artist
Dionysis Savvopoulos (b. 1944, Thessaloniki) is a Greek music composer, lyricist and singer. In 1963 he moved to Athens, terminating his law studies in favour of his career in music. He became very popular, both in Greece and abroad.
Savvopoulos has been noted for being politically active throughout his career in music. In 1967 he was imprisoned for his political convictions by the Greek military junta of 1967-1974.
Although never a member of Μπουρμπούλια, Savvopoulos found their name and they were his backing band from 1969 until 1972, playing in two of his records "Το Περιβόλι Του Τρελλού" (uncredited) and "Μπάλλος" (credited).
