"The Plains, Wide Open, Alive" - Free Mini-album... →

Today is the day I finally finished my digital mini-Doppelgänger version of “The Plains,” called “The Plains, Wide Open, Alive.” This is a link to where you can download it and/or buy it from Bandcamp. It’s a collection of songs from the album recorded in our rehearsal space (with a bunch of overdubs), arranged to reflect the songs as they are played live - or, more...

Winter Madness, Fragments: Los Angeles

My sleep has been disrupted lately by bouts of anxiety accompanied by flashbacks from Los Angeles, memories from a couple of years ago. It isn’t the artificial, plastic Hollywood of the movies, nor the gritty, boisterous L.A. of the tabloids, but something much more immediate and sensual, a flurry of fragmented memories that seem infinitely far removed from the present.

Our second SLKJ track from the Fat Bastards suite is possibly the first Finnish ice hockey trip hop anthem ever written. Juho wrote and rapped this. I’m the sultry backing vocalist.

Article in Finnish on Our "Fat Bastards"... →

Juho Alajuuma and I are working together on a soundtrack for a theater piece called “Fat Bastards,” which will be performed at the Baltic Circle theater festival next month (November 16th-19th in Suvilahti, Helsinki).
