Olli Ahvenlahti

Mirror Mirror is the new album by the Finnish jazz legend, pianist-composer Olli Ahvenlahti. Championed by the likes of Gilles Peterson and Kenny Dope, Ahvenlahti is a master of hard-grooving jazz funk. Here, he continues the evolution of his style, much-beloved since the legendary 1970s albums such as The Poet and Bandstand. Ahvenlahti's new group highlights some of the best talent on the Finnish scene, including Jukka Eskola, Joonatan Rautio, Ville Herrala and Jaska Lukkarinen.
