Olli Soikkeli in Rikalan Krouvi

Olli Soikkeli kicks off Pumpkin Weeks on Sunday, October 12th at 6 pm in the unique atmosphere of Rikala Tavern.

Olli Soikkeli has emerged as one of the most respected gypsy jazz guitarists in the world. Now he performs in Finland with his New York trio, featuring bassist Antti Lötjönen and drummer Ben Zweig. The concert is part of the trio’s Finnish album release tour. Soikkeli, who has lived in New York for over ten years, has performed alongside genre superstars at jazz clubs and festivals across Europe and the United States.

“Olli Soikkeli is a riveting Finnish guitarist who combines astonishing dexterity and speed with pure soul in a way that places him among the worthiest current day successors to the legacy of the great Django.” -The Wall Street Journal
