Don’t worry, the Viking longboats aren’t heading our way again! London based music marketing company DIY is delighted to welcome back Music Finland’s music export initiative for a second year. Following last year’s sold out show, DIY is once again teaming up with WTF – Welcome to Finland – for a night celebrating the country’s thriving music scene.
Taking place at the Old Blue Last in Shoreditch, London EC2, on 19th November, DIY & WTF Present: The Nordic Invasion, will bring together three of Finland’s most exciting emerging acts, as well as an intimate networking event to meet the artist teams, in collaboration with Enki Music
Leading the line-up is Helsinki-based Glayden, whose sound pulls together left-field experimental electronics, alternative rap and underground club propulsion.
Alongside them is Malla, who blend house, disco, synth-pop and more adventurous electronic textures, alongside Us, who bring a firm mix of garage rock, indie and punk.
The showcase will offer a snapshot of the breadth of Finland’s contemporary music scene from experimental electronics to fuzzy guitars. For the Finnish community in the capital, it’s an opportunity to see homegrown talent up close; for everyone else, it’s an invitation to discover what’s happening beyond the usual musical borders.
Tickets are available from DICE. https://tinyurl.com/23fdbzzz
