“We make music about the best people on earth – children!”

Sukkalukko is a children’s music group founded in spring 2023. The band consists of Susanna Volanto and Tomi Rajala. Tom is best known for The Bätmäns and Susanna is known for her appearances on children’s programmes on television. Both have diverse musical backgrounds and experience in working with children’s culture.

Sukkalukko have released four singles, and three of them have shot to the official ‘Parasta lastenmusiikkia’ (best children’s music) playlist on Spotify. Sukkalukko was also nominated in the 2024 Jellonagaala as newcomer of the year (Vuoden tulokas). June spells celebration for the group, as they release their debut album!

Musically, Sukkalukko’s songs are energetic pop. The lyrics have been inspired by daily life in families with children: playing outside, friends, runny noses and socks, why not! The songs brim with joy and delight and are sweet and catchy. Parents will find peer support in the songs in the middle of hectic family life. You are not supposed to sit down during a Sukkalukko performance; instead, you are encouraged to jump, sing and play along. Hold on to your socks – here we go!
