Anastasia Demetriadou is Nama Dama, a multidisciplinary artist from Cyprus, known for her captivating audio-visual performances that blend the ethereal beauty of electronic folk with the infectious energy of pop. Drawing on her Ukrainian, Greek, Cypriot, and Pontic heritage, she creates immersive soundscapes that feel both contemporary and deeply rooted in ancestral tradition.
Her performances are more than concerts. They are rituals. Through the art of live looping, Nama Dama transforms each set into an atmospheric experience where sound, story, and movement merge. Her debut album Pagan Soul captures this fusion, weaving ancient ritualistic elements with modern electronic beats.
Since she began performing in 2019, Nama Dama has steadily built a loyal following and appeared on stages such as Glastonbury Festival (UK), Tremor Festival (Azores), Fengaros Festival (Cyprus), Athens Music Week, Pulsar Festival (Samothraki), Rialto World Music Showcase(Cyprus) and TEDx Limassol.
Today, she splits her time between her solo act and her work as a composer and vocal coach for theatre productions. In 2024, she was honoured with the “Young Artist of the Year” award by the Cyprus Theatre Organization (THOC), a milestone that led to a fruitful collaboration with acclaimed theatre director Thomas Moschopoulos.
