Life and career
[edit]Born in Thessaloniki into a family of Pontian origins, Nikolaou began his career as a singer in 1970, performing in the stage musical Dilina.[2] In 1973 she started collaborating on stage and in studio with Vassilis Tsitsanis.[3] She got her breakout thanks to the collaboration with Yannis Markopoulos in three successful albums released between 1974 and 1975.[3] In 1977, she released her first solo album Χαμόγελο της Λιζέτας ("Smile of Lizeta"), which included songs by Tsitsanis, Markopoulos, Giannis Spanos, and Dimos Moutsis.[2][3]
