Jazz Finland Live

Vocalist Emma Salokoski and Ilmiliekki Quartet, one of the international success stories in Finnish jazz, joined forces in 2009 for the album "Vi såldre vara hemman". The record was a success and the combo's live shows since have become rare events every music lover should mark on their calendar with big capital letters. Salokoski and Ilmiliekki are now working on new material based on Swedish language Finnish poetry, and now they are ready to showcase the new music live.
