   About Surunmaa
Finnish tango with one foot rooted in traditional folk music and the other foot in the melodic pop rock scene.
That’s only one attempt to describe the music of Surunmaa.

Surunmaas founder Viktor Fors Mäntyranta grew up in northern Sweden but is now living in the city of Gothenburg. Well known for its music scene Gothenburg seemed like the perfect place to settle down. Here he met his good friends and musical colleagues that together gave shape to Surunmaa.

The band gets their musical and spiritual inspiration from the Torne River valley, the woodland located between northern Sweden and Finland. The area is well known for its old haunting folksongs.
The minor notes of the accordion meets the firm pulse of the bass. Tradition meets chaos. Each member adding his or her personal flavour creating a sound you’ll hardly forget.


Politics, religion and love all gathered under the same name: Surunmaa

I belief in
artgeneering...

the artist is only a medium,connected to the spirits around him-

translating vibes into symbolic shapes to reinitialize the ancient way
of using language...

the way of light and color...

without the disguise of words,right through the passage of our eyes...

to reach hearts and souls without taking the intelectual loop way...

natural formulas in an unnatural world...pure and uncensored...

awakening the visiual awareness, the centre of our inner universe...

to let it shine in the way it has allways been before these annoying
times,

that keep us away from our natural mission...

to stay connected with our great mother earth and her deep spirit of
freedom and peace...

we have to regain our nearly lost nativeness,

to stop this wheel of opression and iniquity that haunts our world and
our hearts...it's time for the rainbow warriors :-)
