Nuijamiehet
Catalogue ID: FRCD-2
Release date: November 16, 2000
The music of Nuijamiehet is an expressive synthesis of European and American jazz traditions. Shifting between composition and improvisation the foursome create music that is far beyond the expected. Sax player Mikko Innanen, guitarist Kalle Kalima, bass player Lasse Lindgren and drummer Mika Kallio are all young but already experienced musicians - in Finland and abroad - and among the most original in their generation.
Musicians
- Mikko Innanen, soprano, alto and baritone saxophones
- Kalle Kalima, electric and acoustic guitars
- Lasse Lindgren, acoustic bass guitar
- Mika Kallio, drums
