Jarvis Cocker

The Release Festival celebrates the Britpop era with iconic band Pulp headlining the event. Known for their eclectic sound blending post-punk, indie-pop, disco and glam-rock, Pulp promises an unforgettable performance led by Jarvis Cocker's charismatic presence.

Greece’s former finance minister Yanis Varoufakis can be accused of a lot of things from a narcissist with bad fashion sense to a failed negotiator, but nobody can deny his narrative skills. Through scattered fragments here and there with a dash of spice, his selective memories are emerging like something of a pop psychodrama.

Here are some things we know:

Twitter is trying to lighten up the Greek debt crisis with the hashtag #grexit_songs, inviting participants to come up with music related to the possibility of Greece being forced to leave the eurozone.

The Athens Voice continues to insist that installation artist Danae Stratou, wife of Greece’s famous Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis, is the muse that inspired Pulp’s 1995 hit “Common People”. Varoufakis said that though he didn’t know his wife back then he knows that she was the only Greek student of sculpture at St.

It would be a serious “scoop” if proved true… The Independent on Friday circulated a report attributed to the alternative weekly “Athens Voice” by which Yanis Varoufakis’ wife, the elegant and attractive Danae Stratou, is the inspiration of Pulp’s 1995 hit “Common People”.
