A pioneer of Finnish female rock at Tuulensuu Palace!

Muska began her still-ongoing career as a singer in 1969. At the time, she was the only Finnish female rock singer whose repertoire included artists such as Janis Joplin and Tina Turner. Their songs are still part of her live set.

Muska spent her childhood in Kaivopuisto in Helsinki, where she first encountered rock music. On Huvilakatu there was a small bar, and outside it Muska listened with her brothers Sammy and Kirka to the strange music drifting out: Elvis Presley, Little Richard, and the like. It was the late 1950s, and the little budding musicians weren’t allowed inside yet!

Muska’s singing career took off in the 1960s, and in 1969–71 she toured on summer circuits with Kirka and Danny. In autumn 1971 she began being accompanied by the legendary Orpheus band led by Hannu “Hande” Salakka. Hande and Muska then founded a new band, Muska & Hot Dogs, which gigged extensively in the early 1970s, including joint tours with Hurriganes and Rauli “Badding” Somerjoki.

Her first single, Kirjoita postikorttiin (“Write on a Postcard”), was released in 1971, and the LP Muska followed in 1973. This debut album features the legendary Krokotiilirock (“Crocodile Rock”) and other covers from artists such as Chuck Berry, Nazareth, Suzi Quatro, and Slade. Performed by a Finnish woman, these hard-hitting songs became the spark that launched Finnish female rock as a whole. The album featured top musicians including Albert Järvinen, Pekka Pohjola, Ronnie Österberg, and others.

After that, many excellent albums were released: Tää se päivä on, Pienet suuret pojat, Pidä kii, and Kulissit. Her latest studio album, Majakanvartija (“The Lighthouse Keeper”), came out in 2015. Muska was awarded an artist’s pension in 2015.

Changes possible.
