Biography
Hailing from Athens but now based in Berlin, Sidus has established a reputation for their captivating instrumental compositions reminiscent of bands like God Is An Astronaut, Russian Circles, and The Ocean Collective.
Originally a one-man project led by Spiros Olivotos (also working on social media management and digital marketing), the band has released an EP and two singles to date. Besides Sidus, he is also a current member of cinematic doom metallers Unverkalt.
The band now has a full line-up with the addition of the guitar duet of Chris Malliakos and Stefanos Kaisaris (also a member of Greek deathcorers Foray Between The Ocean), and Alex Lykostratis, who took up the sound designer/keyboardist role, providing his long-time experience in music production (Voodoo Project Studios, Athens, Greece).
Currently signed to Argonauta Records, Sidus released their new EP “Seismos” on June 16, 2023, and is working on their highly anticipated debut album while preparing for their first live shows in Germany and Greece.
