... Nothing can quite prepare you for Finnish accordionist Kimmo Pohjonen ...

THE WIRE (UK)

Earth Machine Music, created by Finnish  adventurist and accordion virtuoso Kimmo Pohjonen, is an electrifying live musical performance incorporating the sounds of agricultural machinery with Kimmo’s amplified accordion. This Australian premiere, exclusive to Queensland Music Festival, has captivated audiences across the UK.

Earth Machine Music
moves out of the concert hall and into striking rural settings as Kimmo performs with local farmers and their machinery in a ground breaking spectacle.

Dubbed the 'Jimi Hendrix of the accordion', Kimmo is a charismatic musician who has re-invented the traditional concept of the accordion as a solo instrument to create a unique and unforgettable show.
