  • Bio

    The Blanko is a true power trio band. These boys with their wild and free souls form a holy triangle of music spiced by progressive power pop. The group has existed since 2006 and has already got an impressive live act reputation. Pauli Hauta-aho is an impulsive guitar hero whose colourful personality can vary from sensitive vocal renditions all the way to crazy guitar solos. He writes the band's songs which the band members arrange together. Jakke Saarinen, the drummer, is the aggressively beating heart of the Blanko, challenging the others with his skilful rhythms - a true Keith Moon of Finland. Marko Haataja's job, in turn, is to glue these elements together with his flinty talent: he's the devil when it comes to playing bass. Every gig is a new adventure and they will give it 150% of pure spirit mixed with heart, soul and humanity. The band's energetic and multidimensional performances welcome everyone to the world of Modern Retro Rock. .... "It's not what you play - it's the way you play it" ....
