During Kalottjazz & Blues, the Oulu All Stars Big Band is visited by one of Finland’s most charismatic stars, Kasmir, who is known for his pop music with influences from R&B. The talented sing & songwriter broke through in 2014 with a summer hit “Vadelmavene” (Raspberry Boat) which returns year after year in the Finnish playlists during the summer. In Kalottjazz & Blues we hear Kashmir’s compositions in soul tones with big band arrangements.
