One of Finland s premier fiddlers, Arto Järvelä has, over the past three decades, been a member of more than ten folk music groups. He's primarily known as founder, composer and arranger of Kaustinen fiddle legends JPP, in action since 1982. Sara Pajunen and Jonathan Rundman of Minneapolis-based duo Kaivama formed in 2010 to explore the music of their Finnish ancestry. Influences alternately ancient and modern, Nordic and American, reveal themselves in Kaivama's sound. Collaborating for the first time on a full-length album, these three musicians create a bridge between Finland and Finnish-America.
