MÄKKELÄ (FIN) | folk noir/dark blues acoustique | "Homeland" Tour 2019

Mäkkelä, Finnish songwriter/performer, is for sure one of the extravaganzas of Europe's singer/songwriter scene. Four critically acclaimed full length albums and numerous contributions under his belt the charming eccentric is constantly touring the clubs all over Europe. A truly unique live act, melting edgy lofi-folk anthems, his punk-folk roots and a vaudeville twinkle into a stunning folk noir brew. This combined with his characteristic songwriting and exceptional guitar-style earned him in 2017 a nomination for Germany's European Folk Award. On stage Mäkkelä delivers a mesmerizing acoustic performance on mostly guitar and irish bouzouki. Significantly different to most of the average singer/songwriter stuff. Exceptionally intense songs and a hi-energy live performance that reminds at times of a Strummer-meets-Cohen-meets-Waits kind of thing. Since the release of his current album "Homeland" Mäkkelä has been touring successfully solo in Canada, Scandinavia, Eastern and Central Europe.

"This album grows on you with each listen and is a definite musos album. With definite echoes of Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen and the booze lashed, cigarette stinking romanticism of Shane MacGowan's lyrics, Mäkkelä takes a less trodden path and invites you on his journey in search for a 'Homeland'."
