| About Wainotar |
We have a calling.
We have a dream: to plant the firm roots of our Finnish heritage in the rich soil of global tradition, to set it abloom into music that will reach beyond barriers of time and all borders of the world. To hear our ancestors’ instruments resound in harmony with modern-day samplers.
Mirka’s unique singing draws its passion equally from ethno/folk’s timeless themes and fresh contemporary sounds, while the lyrics echo the spirit of Kalevala, Finnish folklore and ancient beliefs.
But what is Finland?
Clusters of city lights flickering among the dense snow-covered forests and landscapes of endless lakes.
And what is Wäinötär?
A wreath of woodland smoke circling under street lamps, carried on by kilobytes and millions of pulses through the dance floor, then all the way back to be blown by the North wind.
