Ne Lintuizet is a supergroup of four songwriters (Pekko Käppi, Kielo Kärkkäinen, Laura Moisio and Lauri Myllymäki) that brings polyphonic folk into the world of the 2020s. Founded in 2024, the band's unadorned and delicate collaboration joyfully combines golden-age American folk, Finnish folk song traditions and nueva canción. The quartet will perform both new music and new interpretations of each songwriter's output.

“We started the band so we could sing together because we all love polyphonic singing. There's a special human power to it," say the band members. "Singing together requires tuning into a shared space, listening to others. It's a presence and a dialogue that creates a sense of belonging. It's in the moment that it feels meaningful and inspiring."

The members of the band share a love of vibrant and dynamic song writing and music, but each has approached "folk" from a slightly different angle. Pekko Käppi has creatively fused folk song traditions with both psychedelic rock and world music. In Kielo Kärkkäinen's songs, folk and jazz meet poetic lyricism Laura Moisio's work has echoes of more modern indie folk, while Lauri Myllymäki has drawn on American songwriter music from the 1960s and 70s. This mélange of styles brings out new and surprising aspects of each of the musicians.
