”Unexpected, curious, striking, offbeat, rockin’, avant-garde, and fucking good. Koutus is one of the best discs to emerge this year, regardless of category.”
Harri Kuusijärvi Koutus is a Finnish band led by accordionist Harri Kuusijärvi. Drawing on various contemporary influences the group creates a distinctive soundscape with taste of 70´s prog rock, jazz and world music fueled with improvisation.
