It begins with the sound of a bow drawn across strings, a call from a time long forgotten. Kallomäki’s music merges the primal voice of the electric bowed lyre with the weight of metal and the depth of dark folk, forging a bridge to ancient echoes and untold stories. Since 2018, the group has carried these echoes across stages in Finland, Ireland, Estonia, Lithuania, and Germany, shaping performances that range from grand theatrical spectacles to intimate acoustic rituals, always anchored in the raw force of their sound.
With three releases, Roka Ukri (2018), the double album Uuden kuun aika I & II (2020), and Huunpurema (2023), Kallomäki continues to carve out a world where music becomes memory and every note carries the weight of history. After their packed show at Tuska, the band sat down with The Offering to talk about the project, future plans, and the stories still waiting to be unearthed.
