Kiila is a bunch of people who love songs and sounds.
Tuota tuota is the third full-length album by Kiila. Its songs were born of peaceful, focused work and intense rehearsals, interspersed with sleep and mealtimes. The album features an eight-strong core line-up but, as always, we have had the privilege of playing music with many of our friends. Tuota tuota develops around its seven songs that touch on the nature of knowledge and work, the fluctuations of inspiration and threat.
About Tuota Tuota:
[...]The performances are confident, unselfconscious and perhaps somewhat gauche as a result, but the gusto with which Kiila attack their songs is ultimately irresistible. The songs themselves indicate a compositional intelligence often lacking in ensembles of their ilk, moving from ballad to drone with immaculate timing and thoughtful orchestration.[...] - Joseph Stannard / The Wire
[...]Kiila never ask you to gulp down their sprawl: the jamming is modest, the songcraft repeatable and molded. Tuota Tuota joyfully balances the band's experimental tendencies with tender, aged songcraft.[...] - Andrew Gaerig / Pitchfork
[...]It's well tasteful yo![...] - Norman Records
The live line-up from left to right: Pekko Käppi (vocals, violin, jouhikko), Juho Kaitajärvi (electric guitar), Jari Suominen (keyboards, electronics), Niko-Matti Ahti (vocals, acoustic guitar), Jukka Räisänen (bass) and Jaakko Tolvi (percussion). Baltic herring with mashed potatoes on the front.
Kiila was founded by Niko-Matti Ahti and Sami Sänpäkkilä in 1993 in Ulvila, Finland. The band first worked as a duo and played their first show in Pori, a city near by, in 1995. Since that Kiila has shifted through many phases, played a lot of music, seen many events and people. The composition of the group has always varied quite effortlessly according to the needs of the band and the people in it.
