Hi from Belgrade!

Sunday, den 26. October 2008

 
Tour has been a wonderful success so far. Everything has worked out fine and the band sounds very tight.
I think tighter than ever before. The band and crewmembers is a well-synchronised machine and as a good team, small changes we might have are not affecting the general balance.

Hi from Kuusankoski!

Friday, den 10. October 2008

 
Before returning back to Finland, I was in the studio in Buenos Aires recording the song “Enough” and two other songs.
Singing “Enough” was fun for me, because I had already sang the song many times on tour. Still the recording process is very different than singing live. 
It was very hard to reach the same feeling [...]

Time to say goodbye for Latin American people

Sunday, den 14. September 2008

 
My friends, my beautiful Tormenta en America tour is already over.
Still I would like to share some beautiful moments from the tour with you.
It was great to return to Santiago de Chile. I met many people who had heard me in Noche Escandinava concert in 2002 last time. 
The feeling was breathtaking when the curtain dropped [...]

Happy people travelling

Sunday, den 31. August 2008

Touring has been very good so far.
 
The band and crew have had on our off-days enough time to see places and to do other activities, such as visiting local artist’s concerts.
 
I have been busy promoting my album and the tour.
 

 
It has been nice to meet many of my fans and get to [...]

Wednesday, den 20. August 2008

The three shows in Mexico went really well. It was a great success and I was happy to be able to perform for Mexican people. Also it was nice to return to Guadalajara and to have great show there on my birthday. People were so kind to me everywhere. Thank you Mexico! I hope to [...]

We have been rehearsing with the band in Monterrey, Mexico for couple of days.
Everything went perfect with the help of the local promoter and some friends. And we are ready to Rock tonight!
It was really nice to meet the people of the band again and to see how well Kiko has understood my music and [...]

Regards from chilly Buenos Aires!

Sunday, den 3. August 2008

Here is winter while in Finland is summer. This is no news, but it is still very weird when you travel frequently and change the continents that the climate changes dramatically and you need some time to adjust to it.
 
I am preparing myself for the South American tour, which is going to start pretty soon. [...]

Greetings from Antigua!

Tuesday, den 1. July 2008

 
I have been spending a couple of weeks writing new songs with my friends here in Antigua, in the beautiful island surroundings.
The result is telling of the great and inspiring atmosphere we have had.
I mean, the songs are REALLY amazing. I feel that the process of writing songs this time is much easier than [...]

First of all I want to thank you all for giving me the chance to perform on the Storm tour in Europe 2008.

Hejssan Stockholm!

Sunday, den 1. June 2008

 
Second to last concert on this tour is ahead of us tonight. I am already getting a bit sad that this leg of my Storm in Europe 2008 tour has to end so soon.
The Scandinavian shows have been quite challenging for me. I have realised that there is still a lot of work to do [...]
