JARKKA RISSANEN & SONS OF THE DESERT

Two electric guitars preach their jagged but elegant gospel on Mixed Waste, the new album by Jarkka Rissanen & Sons of the Desert. The band’s third album showcases influences from rock, blues, world music and funk, yet the resulting music is unique and searching for new directions.

JARKKA RISSANEN & TONAL BOX

Jarkka Rissanen and his band Tonal Box release their new album Bones in February 2022. The band is known for their solid take on rhythm and blues, but on the new album they are joined by saxophone sorcerer Kalle Fält, and as a result they explore jazzier sounds than ever before.
