Tango with Lions were officially formed in 2007 by Kat (Katerina Papachristou), a young musician who as bassist and singer has collaborated with many english speaking bands of the Greek indie/alternative scene. They began as a changing collective of musicians and by now they have grown to be a band with a stable line-up.

Their debut album, “Verba Time” was released in 2010 and has received enthusiastic reviews while the song “In A Bar” has broken a record of views on youtube. Their highly anticipated second album, “A Long Walk” was out in spring 2013.
