My First Band: Corazon is out NOW. Play it loud! Play it proud!
Corazon is totally pop but still weard enough that it has found its route straight to my heart. I’m so proud to say that I have taken photos for this wonderful album. I honestly think this is The Finnish Record of the Year.
Cheers, Aki

A friend of mine asked me if I have heard any good Finnish bands lately. I told her that there is one that I’m really excited about: My First Band. And now you heard that as well.
My First Band just got a record deal with Sony Music Finland and Sony Music Germany. They will be the opening band on the forthcoming Sunrise Avenue concerts in Europe – that will gather more than 100 000 people in a couple of weeks. If I would need to place a bet, my prediction is that they are the next BIG BAND from Finland.
The first single Don’t Break My Corazon hints that the band is “duran duranish new age modern talking” kind of pop but that’s not the whole picture. When you hear the whole forthcoming Corazon album you’ll find a superb combination of super artsy stuff wrapped in big, bold, and shameless pop tunes. – Briliant stuff!

PS. More photos after the album hits the market… If you like this, you will love the album cover!
After two weeks of shootings for WWF, Aalto University, Herra Ylppö, My First Band and my own projects I just finished another two weeks photoshop maraton. Besides that I have just started a great co-operation with two Finnish designers. This co-operation has just started but it looks like it will turn into an exhibition in late 2014. (More about this soon…)
The next five weeks the Kingdom of Korea will be out of their royal office. It will be a perfect combination of holidays, meetings, and a lot of foot work at different events, parties and so on. There will even be a couple of photosessions but definitely not office work nor photoshop. Instead there will be a lot of long walks, sunshine, parks, coffee in the night time and hanging out with my daughter. Our royal family will also travel to Sweden and Denmark to meet some of our colleagues and artists and to check the latest vibes from the Scandinavian art scene. Probably we are also going to meet all the other Scandinavian royal families. We can’t confirm that yet but at least we have sent golden faxes with diamond details to ask them to arrange a royal gathering where we can polish our armors side by side!
Cheers, Aki
