+Born in [[Kios]], [[Asia Minor]] (Turk. "Gemlik"), on [[January 18]], [[1913]], '''Yiannis Papaioannou''' came to Greece as a refugee when he was 9-years old. He first moved with his mother and grandmother on the island of [[Samothrace]] before settling in [[Piraeus]]. After his brief stint as a footballer came to an end as a result of an injury, Papaioannou devoted himself to songwriting.
 He is considered by many as the first song writer to have taken [[bouzouki]] music out of the "[[tekkes|tekke]]" (drug den), making it more acceptable to the non-hashish smoking stratum of Greek society.
