After two years, he meets again with one of the most important Greek musicians Kostas Maginas on the guitar, in order to present a tribute to the legendary Ray Charles music, who left his mark on an entire era with his performances and equated as no one else has, his name with the black American musical tradition of soul, the blues, gospel and jazz. The two outstanding musicians, Agamemnon Mardas on bass and acoustic, and Christos Germenoglou on drums will accompany them.
