Black Motor
Yosta Aamun Kynnykssell
Even though the members of Black Motor come from the coastal town of Pori, the rural municipality of Kangasala and the small inland city of Jyvskyl, the roots of the trio lie deep in the soil of the city of Tampere. Saxophonist Sami Sippola, bassist Ville Rauhala and drummer Simo Laihonen could undoubtedly have congregated elsewhere as well, but the easy-going, brotherly and open rock and jazz community of Tampere provided the perfect breeding ground. After taking their individual tentative steps in the scene, a new band became an inevitability.
