Secret Combination: The Album is the fourth studio album by Greek American singer Kalomira which was released at the end of May 2008 by Heaven Music.[1] The album has 12 tracks written by Konstantinos Pantzis, Tasos Vougiatzis and Sunny X.[1][2]

Producers and collaborators

Kalomira cooperated with very popular and prestigious producers. The writers and composers who participate in the production of the album are: Κonstantinos Pantzis, Sunny X, Tasos Vougiatzis, Poseidonas Giannopoulos, Eftihia Sideri, Marc Eastmont, Nektarios Tirakis and Master Tempo who remixed the song "Secret Combination".

Promotion

Kalomira released her fourth studio album after conquering third place in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008. She planned on starting full promotion of the album, but on June 2, 2008, when Kalomira was supposed to be the guest on a popular morning show in Greece, she postponed her appearance because she had to fly to New York City immediately due to her sister's pregnancy. On June 4, 2008, Rythmos FM was supposed throw a summer party where Kalomira would perform all her new songs but this was also postponed since she was out of the country.[3]

Dedication

The album, just like all of Kalomira's other album releases, has a Thank-You's page. She doesn't forget to thank anyone, but she does state that she dedicates this album to her uncle, who died recently.
