Following the explosive reception of his debut single “Ground Zero,” UK metal virtuoso Constantine Kanakis returns with “Solitude,” a breathtaking instrumental piece that showcases his extraordinary command of the six-string and deep reverence for the genre’s pioneering masters.
Much like his debut instrumental effort, Solitude is a personal homage to the guitar legends who shaped Kanakis’ sound—artists like Marty Friedman, Jason Becker, Joe Satriani, Vinnie Moore, and Jeff Loomis.
Guided by exceptional guitar mastery and a love for finely crafted music, Kanakis once again reveals his remarkable touch, producing instrumental pieces that are as powerful as they are moving. Each note resonates like a verse of poetry, lifting the listener beyond the ordinary.
“Solitude” is available now on all digital platforms.

Active in the UK metal scene and known for his work with power metal band Sorceress of Sin, Kanakis has been praised for his “absolutely fluid and beautiful shredding” and the ability to weave “spectacular Neo-Classical flourishes” into his guitar lines. With Sorceress of Sin, he has contributed to three studio albums, including the latest, Ennea (2024), and performed at Bloodstock Festival 2021 on the New Blood Stage.
Currently, Kanakis is focusing on his solo instrumental work, channeling influences from neo-classical and metal guitar greats to create music that is both technically dazzling and emotionally engaging.
