Artist Biography

DINOS’ approach to music, the arts, and life in general, is the product of her mixed heritage; she was born in Puerto Rico to a Puerto Rican mother and a father of Greek and Turkish ancestry. Music has always been part of her life. After a decades-long career as a successful landscape designer, MAYITA DINOS is now releasing her debut CD, THE GARDEN IS MY STAGE. This CD is the melding of two lifelong passions, music and gardens, to bring you a collection of songs that celebrates Nature through the compositions of Jazz, Bossa, Rock, and World Music.
