Porvoo Jazz Festival is also organising late night gigs at Vanha 123 this year. The dancefloor on Friday night will be heated by Punomo!
Punomo is an eight-piece soul band, whose distinctive vintage sound is an aesthetic that draws heavily on the traditions of soul and funk music, woven together with Finnish-language lyrics in an unprecedentedly natural and evocative way. This combination feels delightfully fresh – it’s as if the band has drifted through a time machine from some unknown Finnish soul past to the present day.
Punomo’s musical world exudes timelessness, the healing power of music and hopefulness. Live, the band’s impressive eight-piece line-up has delighted audiences across the board, regardless of age or genre, with its witty, life-affirming energy.
Punomo’s music is made by the band’s drummer Lauri Levanto and singer Johanna Rauma. The band’s debut album Punomo (2022), released in early 2022, garnered praise and excellent reviews both in Finland and abroad. The debut was followed up in February 2025 with the release of Punomo’s second album, Kahdeksan kertaa (Eight Times).
