Absinthe Green began in 2016 as a personal project of songwriter and producer Eirini ‘Absinthe Green’ in Dortmund, Germany. The completion of the songs for the debut album coincided with a move back to Greece in late 2019, where Absinthe was joined by drummer Harry Mason, bassist Villy Pirris, and herself on vocals and guitar, transforming the project into a full-fledged band. Panos Economakis was the latest addition, fulfilling the band’s line-up by assuming guitar duties, completing the ensemble.
Since then, Absinthe Green has been making waves, releasing several singles from their upcoming album and gracing the stages of headlining shows and festivals across Greece. Their music, a rich tapestry of Absinthe’s influences and life experiences, is a captivating fusion of pop elements, aggressive guitars, groovy drum rhythms, and a versatile vocal range. Their debut album, “Of Love and Pain” produced by the renowned Hiili Hiilesmaa will be released in 2024, and it ventures into life’s duality and inner struggles with love and pain, loss and recovery, destruction and creation, light and darkness.
The band’s next single, ‘Viva Forever’ is a cover of the iconic
1998 Spice Girls hit, transforming the original pop ballad
into a powerful rock anthem.
‘Viva Forever’
is out 18/10/24 across all platforms!

“I’m thrilled to present our take on the iconic Spice Girls hit ‘Viva Forever.’ This song holds a special place in my heart, and reimagining it through the lens of rock and metal was both a challenge and a passion project. We’ve infused it with heavy riffs, dynamic vocals, and atmospheric soundscapes to give it a powerful, high-energy feel while staying true to the emotion at its core. Covering this nostalgic track has been an exciting journey, and I hope it resonates with both rock lovers and those who grew up with the music of the ’90s and ’00s” – Eirini ‘Absinthe Green’
