Ruusut have announced that they are going to revolutionize Finnish pop music. That is quite a goal, but the people behind it are quite something, too. Ruusut consists of Miikka Koivisto from Disco Ensemble and Hisser, Ringa Manner from The Hearing and Pintandwefall, Alpo Nummelin from Cityman, and Samuli Kukkola from (among other things) Solano. Other names involved include producer Artturi Taira and author Lauri Levola. Someone might call this a supergroup, but the only thing we are going to say is CHECK THIS OUT!
The music of Ruusut is a combination of catchy pop tunes, edgy electronic beats, thought-provoking lyrics and a production style that has the aroma of tomorrow. Based on a sneak peek the debut album is going to be fantastic, and knowing the skills of the band members the live shows should be pretty magnificent, too. Don't miss it!
