A mix of trashy garage rock, blues, country, punk and indie pop from Turku, Finland. The trio, fronted by the peculiar singer-songwriter Saku Krappala, has been stubbornly working on its homespun and minimalistic music since 1998. The band, best known as and primarily meant to be a live act, has toured barrooms, clubs and festivals extensively throughout the years, in Finland, Scandinavia, the UK, Germany and Central Europe, The Baltic states, Russia and even Japan. The stripped, short songs combine Krappala’s native Finnish rural environments and the philosophy of comic relief with his musical preferences: the mythology of the blues, the simple melodicism and rhythm of country and pop, and the grimy DIY aesthetics of garage rock.
