All aboard the Trans-European Indie Express! For the sixth stop in our online inter-railing experiment, we leap across the Baltic Sea to neighbouring Finland.
With most artists choosing to sing in Finnish rather than English and live in small towns rather than the capital, Finland’s independent sound has remained defiantly local in the global music industry. Join us as we explore the symbolic importance of the Finnish language and delve into hyper indie-pop, gritty rock, and everything in between.
All of the songs featured in the episode, plus many more, are available in our curated Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0TeSTjCkgeYoQE3LuZsbBY?si=tn6OwQ8XQSCs...
