Puhti from Finland is a vivid co-operation between a musician Anne-Mari Kivimäki and a dancer Reetta-Kaisa Iles.
The unique sound of Puhti is created by the use of accordions, vocals and rhythmic stomping. From the very beginning one of the key objectives of the duo has been to create intense, energetic and high-quality folkmusic with dance, and to develop a new kind of stage art with those elements. The duo's repertoire consists of a variety of shows suitable for both small club environments as well as large scale festival arenas.
