Jeannie Niokos and Friends, (a.k.a. EV) is a Toronto-based band with a Big Fat International appeal. They were founded in 1999 by Jeannie Niokos to record and release the debut instrumental CD Evolution, where two songs were licensed for the mega hit film My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
Evolution is an award winning body of work based on traditional Greek folk rhythms with classical, jazz and urban influences. Niokos draws on an unprecedented line-up of instruments that includes piano, bouzouki, flute and saxophone and pioneers into a style and sound she calls Contemporary Greek.
