Sampo Lassila Narinkka
Welcome to the home of Finnish klezmer - Sampo Lassila NARINKKA!
More videos available in the band's Youtube Channel, see the link down there.
"In strange Lands is a gem of an album, the kind of soundtrack to life that makes your environment tremble with naivete and wonder." RootsWorld |
Sampo Lassila Narinkka actually melts the traditional klezmer -style into the special Finnish atmosphere – the feeling in the Narinkka’s music is distinctively slavic, sentimental, rugged, somehow touchingly honest, but suddenly almost scaringly strong. | The other side of the band's repertoire, the beloved traditional klezmer tunes, are arranged matching the own Narinkka -style, growing the live experience into a kind of time travel experience, from the old Bessarabia shtetls to modern Finnish suburbs. |
