Musical background:
Over the past ten years, I’ve played everything from drums to bass to guitar to piano to guitar to percussion to flute – with the result of not learning any of them too well.

The Tavastia Christmas gigs are always tops. Big lineups and flashy lights.
Best show you have seen:
Trio Töykeät, Kalkkirantajazz 05Eddie Palmieri, April Jazz 07
A personal highlight in DJBB:
It was obviously really sweet to beat the entire DJBB band and crew on the official Vati Open 07 Professional Forest Golf Tour. For the second time running.
First album you bought:
Must have been some collection of children’s music hits. I also began and ended collecting Beatles records at around age 7.
Albums you grew up with:
My dad was always playing all kinds of Afro Cuban music. And through my brothers I learned about all the most poisonous classics of progressive rock.

Life philosophy:
“You can't always write a chord ugly enough to say what you want to say, so sometimes you have to rely on a giraffe filled with whipped cream.”

Important people and surviving with oneself. All the joys, acts, and accomplishments that have a positive effect on ones mental health.
Instruments and equipment:
Just a mountain or two of cardboard boxes at home that I skillfully maneuver around. Every once in a while, I pick up my bicycle and ride it to the post office.
