"The edge of the flat earth is all too weak to carry. And there is
nothing there"
This sentence comes from Sami Kukka's diary. When control is lost or
when the wind blows, his short poetic lines turn into silent songs in
Finnish.
Sami Kukka is a Finnish singer-songwriter and folk guitarist, best
known for his minimalist and intimate songs.
In recent years Sami's work has increasingly come to the awareness of
younger audiences.
Sami Kukka released his self-titled debut album in 1988. At a time
when music was supposed to be big and completely produced and album
that featured nothing but one human voice and a guitar, slipped though
without the attention that should have come its way.
2002 saw the release of "VettΣ kuusta" ("Water From The Moon"). In
contrast to the first album with its acoustic Nick Drake feel, the
second featured a band, playing folk rock.
"Kuolema tekee tuloaan" ("Death On The Way" ) SamiÆs new album returns
to the style of his first. On the album, which was recorded in a
cottage by a lake, Sami both performs solo and with friends, who bow
to nothing but necessity.
Members of today's Finnish folk family appearing on the album are
Joose Keskitalo, a folk musician of the younger generation,who is
gaining considerable attention in Finland and Paavoharju, an ambient
esoteric group, who have gained an international reputation.
Below are some excamples of how Sami KukkaÆs music has been described:
"Intimate downer and upper folk", as having "something in common with
Juana Molina and Jose Gonzales - it even has the same softness for
those who cannot understand the language", "his voice and guitar
convey warmth that is not easily categorized... there is something
very authentic."
