Swedish-Greek artist Plàsi returns with a delicate reinterpretation of his track Avignon, this time in a pared-down piano arrangement. Stripping away the original instrumentation, the new version highlights the emotional clarity of the songwriting and Plàsi’s gentle vocal delivery. The result is an intimate ballad that invites listeners into a quieter, more reflective space.
The video accompaniment complements the track’s minimalism, pairing the sparse sound with a visual style that matches the song’s tone. It’s a fitting representation of Plàsi’s overall approach—subtle, considered, and emotionally grounded.
Avignon (Piano Version) follows Plàsi’s 2022 album Foreign Sea, a record shaped during the pandemic lockdowns and written as a personal reflection on what really matters in life. Known for crafting soft, folk-influenced songs in the lineage of artists like Nick Drake and Vashti Bunyan, Plàsi blends Scandinavian and Mediterranean influences into his music, drawing from a life spent between Sweden and Greece.
Since his debut EP Now & Then, Plàsi has earned a growing audience in the global indie folk scene, accumulating over 80 million streams. He has toured with acts such as José González, Hollow Coves, and Efterklang, and continues to build an international presence through both solo work and collaborations.
The new version of Avignon is out now on Nettwerk Records and available on all major streaming platforms.
