Jarmo Saari Republic

Known for his visual composition style, Jarmo Saari is one of the most original and versatile guitarists in Finland. He received the prestigious Finnish Suomi-award 2012. Saari has recently formed a new superb lineup which, he says, he has been dreaming of for ten years. Now the time is finally ripe to introduce the Jarmo Saari Republic, which includes top names in the Finnish rhythm music scene. The group will polish the hypnotic moods of the Jarmo Saari Solu project into a ritualistic and colorful nirvana. Amazing musicianship, original instrumentation, and dynamic group work make this band undoubtedly unforgettable. Is this what it might have sounded like if Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis would have played together? The debut album (released April 2014) features Sam Huber and Tommy Lindgren on vocals, as well as Tim Ries on the saxophone.
