inEvitable is a musical project by Greek-born, Berlin-based artist Evi Filippou. It focuses on experimenting with forms of Greek folklore, jazz, and improvisational music.
The percussionist and songwriter follows her need for self-expression on a journey of musical exploration of her auditory roots back to the folkloric heritage of her homeland—with melodies that lie between timeless, traditional melodies, the modern singer-songwriter tradition, and the folk songs of the 60s and 70s.

In 2023, the album inEvitable was awarded the German Jazz Prize in the category Debut Album of the Year.

“As a musician Filippou brings an astonishing lightness of touch to her work, and that encouraging and enabling impulse is what powers the band.[…] It’s experimental but it’s fun, it speaks of camaraderie but also compositional flair. There is also gentleness, pathos, weirdness and everything in between. So good…[…]How wonderful to hear a band without a weak link communicating such joy.” Sebastian Scotney, UK Jazznews

Roots grow into the earth; they don’t grow into the race.
Sometimes even, the strongest roots
are the ones that grow inwards.
Yet it’s inevitable to land into confusion.

A liberating thought could be
that we are all composed by
layers of experiences, connections and regrets.
Like a collage;
a combination of different forms,
creating a new whole.

I don’t really believe in conclusions,
but if there was one,
inevitably it would be,
that I found a home in me.
