What better way to pay homage to Greece than traditional instrumentation on an old-world backdrop?

With ruins behind him on a jet-black night, multilingual singer/songwriter George Perris performs an evocative version of his song "No Armor" in the below video.

"The hands of time turn slowly/ So it seems/ But all the days turn quickly to years," Perris croons in a burgundy suit, accompanied by spectral acoustic strums from two accompanists.

In the latest episode of Global Spin, a video series highlighting luminous artists from around the world, soak in Perris' crepuscular performance and get a taste of his native land.
