First we played at the Kioski (our almost annual event). The weather was beautiful and people traveling home from work stopped by and enjoyed the coffee & music. Lippakioski is one of our favourite spots in Turku during summertime and nowadays it’s run by the good people of H2Ö.

Then on the evening we played at Pikku-Torre / Folk, Blues & Beyond club with Janne Melanen and T.T.Salo. The nice weather took it's toll on the early evening audience, but we had a good time anyways. We strongly belive in quality over quantity when it comes to audiences.

The first FOLK, BLUES & BEYOND club night was held on Fri 20 Feb. The first guest band was one of my own favourites, Andres Roots & Raul Terep duo.
A year ago we played with them in Estonia and I recorded their gigs in Tartu and Pärnu. Those recordings were later released as Trad.Alt.Blues album. So to celebrate the 1st anniversary of the duo, they toured in Finland, Sweden and Estonia. A great evening with good friends.
