Janne Huttunen (b. 1975) is known as a versatile musician, composer and producer. He has written music for Finnish pop and jazz sensations Waltteri Torikka, Club For Five, Robin and Pete Parkkonen. As a producer he has been involved with #lovemilla, Voice of Finland and Tiisu, so he can be called an exceptionally wide-ranging music professional with a good reason. This can also be heard in his jazz compositions.

Huttunen's solo album Janne Was Here came out in February 2018 on his own label Hut-Tune. The line-up is composed of well-known Finnish jazz names keyboardist Henri Mäntylä, bassist Ville Herrala and drummer Jaska Lukkarinen and guests trumpeter Kalevi Louhivuori, trombonist Jay Kortehisto and percussionist Abdissa Assefa.
