Underwater, the debut EP of singer-songwriter Elias Kovanko, is released on February 18th. On the 19th. Elias celebrates the release with a concert at Vuosaari House, together with blues-artist Nightbird.

Singer-songwriter Elias Kovanko has long served as one of two singers of the band Crimson Peak. Since 2020 Elias has also worked on his own material as a solo-artist. With the upcoming EP ”Underwater”, Elias mixes different musical styles to immerse the listeners in his atmospheric storytelling. His musical influences consist of 70s and 90s rock, pop, blues and folk.

Vaasa-born singer-songwriter and guitarist Anna-Stiina Jungerstam, or Nightbird, the originator of Ostrobothnian blues and a pioneer in the genre, creates songs that are equally rooted in Finnish melancholy and in the great American folk treasures. Nightbird's songs form the soundtrack to sleepless nights, blending velvet midnight jazz songs and moon-gazing slide guitars with the echo of the delta blues pioneers. Her songs spin tales from the life of a ramblin’ woman, finding her way back home.
