Hello, I’m George Gialetzis, born in Thessaloniki in 1990. I picked up the guitar at age three and spent years studying classical-acoustic and electric guitar at Bolero Conservatory in Kalamaria, Thessaloniki, while also building a foundation in harmony and theory at the Municipal Conservatory of Kalamaria. I taught guitar from 2000 to 2003 and performed as an instrumentalist with the Thessaloniki municipality’s philharmonic, honing my craft across stages and community events. Since 2008 I’ve been professionally active as a composer, music producer and singer, while beginning live performances in Thessaloniki’s clubs and launching my first release with LEGEND/Insite Music. Today I divide my time between composing, producing and sound design for media and games, teaching, and running VERSE Music Studio in Thessaloniki. I’ve collaborated with major labels such as MINOS EMI/UNIVERSAL, worked on theater projects like Night Sonata in Athens, and contributed music for festivals and film events, including the 52nd Thessaloniki Film Festival and the Ohrid Balkan Song Festival. I’m passionate about turning ideas into expressive soundtracks that connect with audiences across disciplines.
