Hot Heros once again bring a raw
jazz grit to the heart of Finnish folk. Their latest LP, Tähtisilmä,
explores the compositions of the master fiddler Konsta Jylhä through a
modern, improvisational lens. Deepened by the rich, mournful tones of
cellist Juho Kanervo, the group reimagines these beloved songs alongside
a new original composition by bassist Ville Rauhala. Tähtisilmä is a
visceral blend of jazz improvisation and the timeless "pelimanni"
spirit, capturing the melancholy beauty of Finnish music tradition.
Hot Heros are: Sami Sippola (sax), Ville Rauhala (double bass), Janne Tuomi (drums).
Cello: Juho Kanervo.
Music written by Konsta Jylhä, except 4. written by Ville Rauhala.
