Muurame Jazz Club: Sini Pajunen & Tuomas Paukku feat. Markku Rinta-Pollari

Singer Sini Pajunen, guitarist Tuomas Paukku and saxophonist Markku Rinta-Pollari bring a relaxed, jazzy Christmas atmosphere, performing classic Christmas songs in both English and Finnish. The Jyväskylä-based, deep-voiced singer Sini Pajunen is at home with jazz, blues, heavier music and Finnish schlager. A leading musician of his generation, Tuomas Paukku is a versatile guitarist, skilled across styles and musical settings, as well as a perceptive composer and bandleader. Known for his honeyed saxophone sound, Markku Rinta-Pollari is a longstanding pioneer of Central Finland’s music scene.
