Music in the Palm Garden: Vellamo

Vellamo is the performing and songwriting team of Pia Leinonen and Joni Tiala. Their music is reminiscent of 1960’s folk revival groups such as Richard and Mimi Farina; Peter, Paul, and Mary and Pentangle – but with a Scandinavian twist. It is characterized by haunting melodies, Pia’s ethereal lead vocals and Joni’s virtuosic guitar stylings.
