Helsinki quartet OK: KO releases their third album 'Liesu' with We Jazz Records on 15 April. The band, led by drummer/composer Okko Saastamoinen and including saxophonist Jarno Tikka, pianist Toomas Keski-Santti and bassist Mikael Saastamoinen (of Superpostion & Linda Fredriksson 'Juniper') is a scene favorite in Finland and has recently garnered some international attention with their melodic, dynamic and original approach. The OK: KO sound is adventurous yet accessible, and contemporary yet rooted in the lineage of acoustic small group jazz.When listening to OK: KO, you can feel that their influences also come from out of the musical realm. After all, isn't this just how it should be? Making music from your own life. Here, you can tell that the landscape of rural Finland, it's poetic, at times even melancholy beauty, is ever present. It's folk song country. But don't be fooled, these guys form a real flesh and blood jazz band. That means that the music just starts when the first note hits, and onwards from there, we're in for a wild ride.Whether punchy like on 'Anima', solemn like on 'Arvo', or just trekking out there a skiing lane of their own like on 'Vanhatie', what you'll get is pure OK: KO. Melodic, interactive, honest and forward-reaching contemporary jazz music. That is something we appreciate - a lot!
