Snekka is a folkrock-group formed in 2000. Their music cannot be forced to any singular genre or style of music due to the broad spectrum of absorbed influence. The original sound, distinctive and professional musicians together with mainly self-composed repertoire form the strong and recognizable sound of Snekka. The band has become known of its ambitious, high-quality music and their raging stage performance.
In summer 2003, Snekka gained The Finnish Championship of Folk Music with an acoustic line-up. The same year drummer Tuomas Rauhala joined the band. With its current line-up, the band has widely achieved recognition and success. It was elected as The Band of the Year at Kaustinen Folk Music Festival 2004. Shortly after, the band released their debut album, “MOT”, which has received lots of great word among the critics and the citizens.

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
Just wanted to let you know about my son's solitaire card game called Grump...It is now live on Facebook...If you have a Facebook account just search the apps under Grump...Enjoy...I hope this will be a good year for you...Kari Scott
Yeah, you should come to Melbourne! It's great here! Melbourne is probably the best city that I've ever visited before, and I'm lucky enough to live here! But I'm actually planning on moving to Turku for a couple of years, leaving in July, so Helsinki or Turku, or any other Finnish cities may take the top as my new favourite city.
I found out about your band in a search, I can't remember how, but probably from your influences. What did you think of my music?
Thanks for accepting my friend request, your music is awesome! Very enjoyable. I really liked the rhythmic sections in Karibian Merirosvot and the melodic and harmonic stuff in Shudan. Your band plays very well together.
