Greece’s soul, jazz & funk queen Idra Kayne will give a live performance during a three-day cruise of the Louis Olympia to renowned destinations in the Aegean Sea and the coast of Asia Minor.

On 5 September, Idra Kayne will perform an uplifting set of covers from Beyonce, Michael Jackson, Jamiroquai, Madonna and Amy Winehouse and her own hits, such as “Don’t Walk Away.”
