| Sami has been playing keyboards
since he was 5 years. First, he was just a "family-entertainer"
and it was not until 13 when he had his first real band. It was
just studying playing together and no own songs were written.
And the musical style of the band was not so satisfying. But as
Sami comes from a small village there wasn't other choices.
After the band broke up, there was a few restful years.

| Then, suddenly, Sami
got to know one band that totally changed his life,
Dream Theater. As he
didn't have a band at this time he started to play with
Images and Words. It was about three years playing with
Dream Theater until second band came true. It was the first
touch to making own music. Then, a year later, Sami moved to
Jyväskylä and started to look for a local band. He had pretty
many choices and got requests from Helsinki to Kuopio and from
everywhere in the stretch.
During the Jyväskylä years Sami found his way into bands like
Clarity and Bronze Doré. And in 2002, he was asked to join
Morian. |
