One of post-war Greece’s most popular performers, singer Tolis Voskopoulos, passed away at the age of 81, a week before his July 26 birthday.
The cause of death was given as cardiac arrest.
Voskopoulos began his career as a film actor, and in secondary roles. He soon emerged with a distinct voice and stage presence, recording some of the biggest hits in the domestic music scene in the late 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Many of his best-known singles were also performed in several movies, especially Greek-language musicals in the “Golden Era” of Greek cinema
