Biography

Yannis Vogiatzis (Athens, 20 December 1934 – 15 May 2023) was a Greek singer who was active in theatre, cinema and radio. He began his singing career at Joseph Korinthiou's talent shows at the Pagrati Grove. He was one of the most popular names of the 1960s. From 1958 to 1962 he was the official singer of the palaces. In 1970 he underwent surgery for polyps and after three years he stopped singing. He continued singing since 1978.
