In 2013, Dalindèo published its third album, Kallio, an ode by the composer-guitar player Valtteri Laurell Pöyhönen to the most urban and colourful district of Helsinki. The compositions of the album combined old Finnish schlagers, swing jazz and Finnish "Rautalanka" guitars with the positive energy characteristic of Dalindèo. Considering it was a jazz album, Kallio's songs, spirit and story resonated exceptionally well in Finland, and in its week of publication, it ranked 13th on Finland's official album list.
After the publication of the album, Dalindèo travelled intensively around Finland, performing at all jazz festivals and reaching younger audiences on festivals such as Ilosaarirock and Flow Festival. Now 10 years later in 2023, Dalindèo celebrates Kallio by performing it in its entirety in Sello Hall, among other venues. The album still feels vibrant, and after being awarded the Jazz Album of the year at the Emma awards, Kallio is considered by many to be a "classic album" of Finnish jazz.

OMJ Jazz & Etno: Case Kämäräinen ft. Severi Pyysalo,RioLive, oulu20.9. At 19:00

Tickets 20 € / 11 € / 8 €
Northern mysticism, catchy melodies, as well as free improvisation. Case Kämäräinen ft. Severi Pyysalo –ensemble draws their music from these elements.
Intuition, which most often leads us in everyday life as well as in other life decisions, has been a common thread running through the album Mystique From The North, which was released last autumn. Tomi Kämäräinen approached composing new music with full confidence in his intuition. The style and rhythmic body of almost every song originated from the drum "grooves" that he had raised as a candidate for a new album while improvising.
The strong foundation of free improvisation among the band members led Kämäräinen to compose music where everyone has room to realize their own vision as a player, and thus bring their own handprint to Case Kämäräinen's music.
Special guests on the tour include vibraphonist Severi Pyysalo and bassist Antti Lötjönen. The tour features both new and old music from the band.
