Profile

Kaiku, a six person group with three lead vocalists, is a New York-based group of artists with both Finnish and American backgrounds. They are attracting many fans for their unique sound (ala the Finnish vocals) at the New York music scene.

The origin of the band can be traced back to when the lead Finnish singers met three years ago and intially had the idea of forming an all-female vocal group that sang just Finnish songs, but they ended forming Kaiku instead. Their songs are from tradition Finnish songs and stories fit into a musical form. "We’re taking our culture forward to people who might not know much about it."

Thoughts

Kaiku is an interesting band. They try to combine melodic melodies similar to Enya and infuse it with modern Finnish folk music. Right now their music has some rough transitions and their vocalists are still quite inexperienced, but with more practice they could be quite good.
