Ouzo Power is a rousing, one-of-a-kind, bouzouki-dominated, blues/rock band that reinvents and invigorates traditional Greek blues, blazing a trail through heavy metal and reggae to love songs and reinterpreted Bob Dylan. The bouzouki, the soul of Greek urban music, expressed the sorrow, pain and in-your-face rebellion of a proud displaced people forced by war to live a hard scrabble existence on the margins of society.

The music became known as Rebetika music and the convention-flouting musicians, Rebetes.
