Fotis Polymeris (Greek, Modern (1453-);: Φώτης Πολυμέρης; 20 February 1920, Patras - 28 May 2013, Athens), born as Fotios Palymeris (Φώτιος Παλημέρης), was a Greek guitarist, singer and composer.[1]
He is considered amongst the most successful representatives of the "early popular" Greek songs with a personal trobadour-style. He wrote lyrics and music for over 100 songs and collaborated with the most significant composers of this style. Also, Polymeris' music is heard in several Greek films.
Later he co-worked also with people from rebetiko-style music, such as Vassilis Tsitsanis.
