about
Sami Kukka is a Finnish singer-songwriter and folk guitarist, best known for his minimalist and intimate songs. Sami Kukka released his self-titled debut album in 1988. At a time when music was supposed to be big and completely produced and album that featured nothing but one human voice and a guitar, slipped though without attention. 2002 saw the release of "Vettä kuusta" ("Water From The Moon"). In contrast to the first album with its acoustic Nick Drake feel, the second featured a band, playing folk rock. In year 2007, his third album, "Kuolema tekee tuloaan" ("Death on the way"), returns to the same quiet atmosphere as the first album. He performs his music alone or in sparse arrangements collaborating with soul mates from the younger generation of Finnish folk: Joose Keskitalo, Paavoharju, and the indie label Helmilevyt.
