Our Take

Greetings, music aficionados! Today, we have the pleasure of diving into the delightful world of AALLOTAR's latest offering, "Ameriikan Laulu."

AALLOTAR, the dynamic duo consisting of violinist and vocalist Sara Pajunen and accordionist Teija Niku, serve up a smorgasbord of Finnish and Karelian folk tunes with a modern twist on "Ameriikan Laulu." The album takes listeners on a sonic journey through the forests and fields of Eastern Europe, wrapped in a cozy knit sweater of nostalgia and tradition.

From the hauntingly beautiful harmonies in "Ratsumies ja Kyyhkynen" to the toe-tapping rhythms of "Ukkonen," AALLOTAR effortlessly blends old-world charm with contemporary flair. Pajunen's ethereal vocals soar over Niku's masterful accordion accompaniment, creating a musical tapestry that is both enchanting and invigorating.

But it's not all whimsy and whimsicality on "Ameriikan Laulu." The duo's poignant performance of the title track, "Ameriikan Laulu," reflects on the immigrant experience, weaving a tale of longing and displacement that resonates deeply in today's turbulent times.

In conclusion, AALLOTAR's "Ameriikan Laulu" is a mesmerizing melange of old and new, tradition and innovation. So grab your favourite mug of lingonberry tea, cozy up by the fire, and let AALLOTAR's enchanting melodies transport you to a magical world where folk music reigns supreme. Trust us, you won't want to leave.
