Tero Hyväluoma and Esko Järvelä playing fiddles on a blue-lit stage, Antti Puumalainen at the electronics between them

Press bio · 2026

Two fierce fiddles and limitless sound design pushing the boundaries of Nordic Folk Music.

Debut album out April 2027

Ancient roots · Futuristic sound

Even before their decade as the boundary-pushing duo Teho., Finnish fiddlers Tero Hyväluoma and Esko Järvelä were already known for relentless global touring with the fiddle supergroup Frigg. Now, that deeply rooted acoustic mastery meets its electronic evolution.

2026 · The trio

In 2026, the journey expands as T3HO. with the addition of sound designer Antti Puumalainen. Deeply grounded in Nordic folk tradition yet constantly venturing into the unknown, the trio blends contemporary composition, improvisation, and raw energy with touches of jazz, noise, and Nordic madness.

Debuting on major stages in Australia and Finland, the trio proved that a formidable acoustic history provides the perfect foundation for a radically new sound. The new lineup delivers immersive textures, explosive dynamics, and a limitless sonic spectrum, resulting in an experience that is both ancient and futuristic.
