| 1 | Made his recording debut as a leader with his band Husband in 2003. The record contains nine original compositions of Vartiainen that range from raunchy funk of "Sir Dalud", via jazzy "Baritone" and soft ballad "Le Mu" to percussive world music celebration of "Koiruus". The tight Husband consists of bassist Harri Rantanen and drummer Anssi Nykanen who have backed dozens of Finland's top artists together during the last two decades. They know each other well and you can hear that in their playing. Record's guest musicians are the cream of the crop in the Finnish music scene today: Abdissa "Mamba" Assefa increases the percussive power, saxophonist Timo Lassy brings in shades of classy, sophisticated contemporary jazz, vocalist Sami Pitkamo finesses the melodies and Timo Pratskin with keyboards, Jarmo Savolainen with Rhodes/synths and vibraphonist Arttu Takalo enhance the harmony of the music. |
