Originally formed in 1993, the band's current lineup retains only Pertti 'Peppe' Jalava, who has transitioned from keyboards to his first love, the drums.

The band recorded the album Go to the Beach for Alba Records in 2010. In 2016, Pilfink released the album A Guided Tour In The Kuiper Belt. The band concluded the promotional tour for this album at the Pori Jazz Festival with the song Ihmeellinen kurpitsa tapaa haukkuvan mandariinin, paying homage to Frank Zappa and Bela Bartok. After a seven-year hiatus, the band is making a comeback with a new repertoire: THE RETURN OF THE AMAZING PUMPKIN.

Known for his compositions in orchestral and chamber music, Peppe Jalava has crafted a distinctive program for his band, drawing influences from progressive rock, jazz, and modern classical music. All members of the band are seasoned professionals with diverse musical backgrounds, bringing soloistic strength to the ensemble.
