Ilias Choreftakis, Stelios Iliakis, and Vasilis Nikoloudakis pick up their instruments to liven the party.  They had just arrived the day before to prepare and play at a Crab Feed at the Nativity of Christ Church in Novato, California.  

So Vasilis and Effie Fourakis, as members of the Polirinia Cretan Chapter, hosted a little party at their home , and our Cretan friends began performing their magic, warming up for the next night in which they would be willing to play all night if there were ears to listen, and feet to dance.  

Enjoy the sounds from this rising star from the Island of Crete!
