STAGES A/LIVE presents Σtella on the Onassis Channel on YouTube

A beach bar in a seaside fishing village on the Corinthian Gulf has become a destination for artists from all over the world. Cariocas opened in Schinos in 1998 and quickly established a distinct presence in the country's concert scene. The combination of the handmade wooden beach bar by the sea, the incredible sound, and the freedom to dance is unmatched by any other venue. Cariocas is known for one of Greece's most successful rock music festivals, "Under the Sun," which has hosted internationally acclaimed and emerging artists such as Brant Bjork, Nightstalker,1000mods, VIC, Planet of Zeus, and others. But that’s not all. Dozens of other Greek and international artists, including Frankie Knuckles, David Moralles, Louie Vega, Dj Harvey, Ron Trent, Carl Graig, Timmy Regisford, and Joe Claussel, have helped Cariocas' House on the Beach parties become the most successful and longest running in the country. Cariocas, a one-of-a-kind beachfront bar, continues to host both musicians and audiences with the same love and integrity as it did on its first day of operation 16 years ago.

STAGES A/LIVE began in January 2021 as an initiative of the Onassis Foundation for the support of independent music venues in Greece, wherein a series of filmed live performances directed by Christos Sarris raised the volume of the digital stage of the Onassis Channel on YouTube. Three years and 3,321,744 online views later, major names from all the genres of the contemporary Greek and international music scene are online.From the traditional sounds of Psarantonis and the pop tunes of Marina Satti to the Planet of Zeus’ heavy rock and Saske’s rap; from the alternative rock of Pavlos Pavlidis and Bazooka and the raw rock’n’roll of Nightstalker to Michalis Siganidis and Larry Gus’ experimental music, Constantine Skourlis’ noise, and Mikros Kleftis’ and ATH Kids’ hip-hop sounds; and from the Afrobeats of Pongo and the punk energy of Laura Jane Grace and Thrax Punks to Naxatras’ psychedelic rock, STAGES A/LIVE knows no boundaries. For the 2023–24 season, STAGES A/LIVE is attended by a live audience and is a female affair, presenting four unique and exciting femininities of the present.
