    What started out as a bedroom solo project for Johannes Leppänen has turned into a tune-laden touring machine with a ferocious work ethic. And they have two gigs at this year’s Eurosonic! With three lead singers, a sun drenched bucketful of catchy indie songs with more hyperkinetic guitars than you can shake a can of Battery at and thousands upon thousands of European miles on their odometer, they are a force to be reckoned with. No ironic detachment on offer here.

    Feature of the Month: Semmarit on2011-11-09

    Semmarit is one of the top show groups in Finland. The group of 21 men performs mostly a capella and, as they say, they’re “something else from Finland”. The propulsive and comedic show really mixes it up, like one of those impossibly complicated and lethally delicious drinks bartenders show off with, complete with underhand and behind-the-back catches and twirls.
