George Dalaras (Greek: Γιώργος Νταλάρας), also possibly spelled as Yorgos or Giorgos Ntalaras is regarded as the best contemporary Greek singer. He was born in Nea Kokinia, Piraeus on 29 September 1949. His father was Loukas Daralas, a famous singer of rebetiko.
Much of Dalaras' work is dedicated to the history of the Cypriot political situation. He was initially inspired by the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. However, he has been noted for continuing political themes into the late 80's and early 90's when he produced many concerts for the cause of the Cypriot people.
