Lucianos Kilaidonis was born in Kypseli, Athens. He studied and finished the a course at the Architecture School of Metsobio Polytechnic School, but never worked as an architect.
In the beginning of the 70¢s he wrote his first music piece, which iwas for a theatre play by Kostoula Mitropoulou called ¡Our City¢. The songs in the record released are sung by Viky Mosholiou and Manolis Mitsias.
Throughout these years Lucianos staged many concerts in the whole of Greece and Cyprus. The most well known of all is the famous ¡Party in Vouliagmeni Beach¢, that took place in 1983 and was attended by approximately 70.000 people. The ¡Party in Vouliagmeni Beach¢ was considered as the Greek ¡Woodstock¢. In this Lucianos was the first artist who organised an event in a natural environments out of courts and theatres. The last years in his concerts he adds many theatrics and visual elements, turning them more into musical theatre plays, the show ¡Oh! My sweet home country¢ in Lycabetus Theatre in the summer of 1993, was named as the first Greek public musical. This show was also presented in Cyprus, Rhodes, and New York with great success.
Another theatrical show of his is ¡Our Best Years¢ written by Vaggelis Goufas. His last recorded work is: ¡New Kipseli – New Orleans¢ that came out from his collaboration with the famous band from New Orleans: The Preservation Hall Jazz Band. From 1995 and until 1999 he developed with his wife Anna Vagena their own Art Venue ¡Metaxourgeio¢, in a completely renovated old building, that is located in the centre of Athens. This space is where they represent all there current theatrical and musical creations, and it started working in October 1999 with the presentation of the show ¡Microastica¢ by Lucianos Kilaidonis and Giannis Negrepontis.
While he still has concerts in Greece and abroad he mainly presents musical shows in ¡Metaxourgeio¢.
