Joseph Prelorentzos sat next to his brother, Kostas, as they became the first people to be interviewed from Greece for the NAMM Oral History Program. The interview took place in Anaheim at the 2018 NAMM Show and covered the history of their music store, from its beginnings to today. Joseph pointed out that the store opened in 1977 and expanded both in 1991 and 2004. He felt that two important elements of the store’s success have been attending NAMM Shows and that each of their staff members has a connection with music!
