Maria Kalaniemi — accordion and vocals
Eero Grundström — harmonica

Take a musical journey with two musicians through their acclaimed album, Mielos (2020), where emotions occupy a powerful musical world. Maria´s powerful-yet-sensitive playing and singing and Eero´s passionate beats transport the listener through a moving musical odyssey. Mielo is an inspiring and multifaceted tale that lifts one’s inner emotional wings. Through the music, we’ll fly through the forest, over the water and into sunsets and sunrises. Each composition has a backstory suited to every listener. The duo has performed together for more than ten years. Mielo, their last album, received positive reviews and stayed at the top of World Music Charts Europe for several months.
