Default Hello from Finland!

Hi my names is Kevin and I'm a singer-songwriter and avid music listener from the cold northern realms of Finland.

My favourite acts include but are not limited to the Beatles (+ solo), Ween, St. Vincent and LCD Soundsystem. I try to keep it pretty varied if possible, but I'm mostly a fan of very melodic stuff so if it steers too far from that it might be hard for me to get into it.



So anyway, hope to have fun here. Cheers.

Welcome Kevin. I like The Bealtes too. I also like a few Finnish bands, like French Films. What bands do you like that are from Finland?

Tiisu is pretty cool, local boys so I've actually me them.

Kingston Wall is one of the best prog rock bands of all time, seriously super cool.

Other than those two I dont really listen to finnish music that much. I like english as a language more and finnish bands tend to be a bit sub par.

I have to check out Kingston Wall. My kind of Prog bands are from Sweden like The Carpet Knights (Malmö) and Beardfish (Gävle).

(Back to indie) I also like Burning Hearts. I almost forgot to mention them. They are from Ostrobothnia, and French Films are from Helsinki. I thought Burning Hearts and French Films were really good indie bands - I wish I knew more bands like them.

Welcome, Kevin! For some reason, I just adore Scandinavian rockabilly. Another Beatles fan here, as well.
