Live music!
Ossi Maristo leads a Helsinki-based quartet of skilled musicians playing jazz fusion/prog-influenced music. Ossi Maristo is a guitarist of many trades having worked as a freelance/studio musician for over ten years. His roots stem from rock/AOR music, and that mixed with a taste for jazz fusion and progressive rock/metal you get something that can be heard on Ossi’s debut album “Arc”. The recently released album finally gets to hit the road this spring, and the band is ready for it.

Atte Aho is the other monster guitarist of this rocking double-fusion event. Despite the young age, Atte Aho is already known as a versatile and experienced guitarist who has been involved in various projects. Together with the superb band, Aho performs guitar-driven instrumental music composed by him, in which echoes of the canon of fusion guitarists of past decades can be heard – not forgetting the Atte’s own nuanced sound. The spring concerts gives the audience a tasty first bite of what to expect from Atte’s debut album.
