Leon of Athens Unveils New Single ‘Xenos’
Indie-pop artist Leon of Athens has unveiled his brand new single Xenos. Leon delivers a groovy indie tune with dark and intricate electronics, stark guitars and intelligent songwriting skills.
The original Greek meaning of ‘Xenos’ translates to stranger, and according to context is also interpreted as alien, guest, foreigner or enemy. Currently living in London, the Athens native delivers a powerful song with an important message for these turbulent times. Speaking of the track Leon says,
’Xenos’ was initially inspired by the genocide of indigenous peoples. The song refers to any oppressed group of people who are forced to leave their land. On a personal note, it also refers to the feeling of being a stranger to your own self.
Xenos is the first taste of Leon Of Athens new album, which is being produced by David Kosten (Bat For Lashes, Everything Everything) and will be released later this year.
