Säynätsalo 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 mood, performing Christmas classics in both English and Finnish. Sini Pajunen, a Jyväskylä-based singer with a rich, dark voice, is equally at home with jazz, blues, heavier music and Finnish schlager. One of the leading musicians of his generation, Tuomas Paukku is a versatile guitarist who masters a range of styles and musical settings, as well as a perceptive composer and bandleader. Known for his honeyed saxophone sound, Markku Rinta-Pollari has long been a pioneer in Central Finland’s music scene.
