Having delighted audiences at Sello Hall since the beginning of 2019, the intimate living room-like Laulun takaa (Behind the Songs) club continues! Host Venla Kokkonen will be interviewing one of the legends of Finnish music, Maarit Hurmerinta, who celebrated her 70th birthday last year.

Maarit’s career as a performing artist began in 1972 and has continued strongly thanks to her tenacious nature, great songs and wonderful voice. Working with her husband Sami, Maarit’s career and life are characterised by a strong love of music and general enthusiasm. They have recorded an incredible number of excellent songs and numerous hits from ‘Jäätelökesä’ to ‘Toiset tytöt, toiset pojat’. In 2019, it was time for another album, ‘Sumuinen puutarha’, which is Maarit’s 19th studio album.

The Laulun takaa (Behind the Songs) club will feature an interview with Maarit and her intimate duo performance with Sami Hurmerinta in the second half.

Duration 2 h, including intermission
