Tsuumi Sound System with Frigg

Their live energy has been praised as ”volcanic” or ”outrageous”, their musicians virtuosos and their records as ”dangerously addictive roller-coaster rides”: Besides the award-winning original compositions, this seven-piece Finnish contemporary world music ensemble draws their strength from an exeptionally wide range of tastefully and creatively combined influences. It might have something to do with the band having originated as a musical unit of a contemporary folk dance company, but their music is claimed and proven by various audiences giving standing ovations all over Europe highly danceable. It’s a big band with a big sound, unique in its instrumentation and ready to take the next leap forward into the spotlight!
