PROJECTS
projects
I’ve been a bass player in many different bands and projects from orchestras to jazz duos and rock bands. During the years I’ve accompanied singers from jazz to soul and from heavy metal to tango.
I’ve played for example with Michael Monroe, The Finnish Navy Band, Osmo Ikonen, Adi L Hasla, Sami Saari, Veeti Kallio, Reeta Vestman, Maria Tyyster, Rajaton, Janne Raappana, Mikael Konttinen, JP Leppäluoto, Pihlaja, Jarkko Ahola, Tapani Kansa, and many more...
Here you can find info about my main bands and projects, which include both original and cover music line-ups.
Louie blue
Playing bass in Louie Blue’s tour band is my latest project and I’m super excited about it. Louie’s music is a versatile medley of genres dancing around electric RnB. This young musician’s sound has already generated buzz amongst tastemakers in Finland as well as the Nordics. Let’s see what happens next.
Dandy Gravy ’n’ Funks
Big sound, big songs & big smile! Dandy Gravy ’n’ Funks is a 12-piece rhythm music group that started out as a cover band playing EWF, Chaka Khan, MJ, Stevie Wonder etc. In 2017 we released our first album, “Connections”, full of original tunes. DGF still enjoys performing both own and borrowed material.
Joana & Bossakopla
Joana & Bossakopla plays brasilian influenced music mixed with Finnish vocals. Something new and different. I’ve always enjoyed listening to and studying latin music. In this band I’m able to use that knowledge and be creative while doing our own thing. We recorded our first EP in 2015 and new music was released in 2020.
Music for your needs
I regularly gig with great professional musicians, for example at weddings and other occasions.
I’ve also done many tribute projects including music from ABBA, The Police & Sting, Toto, and Michael Jackson. I can arrange a line-up that suits your needs perfectly.
If you need live music for your event, contact me for more info.
