It’s crazy to think this album was a total accident! But that’s what it was. Back in late 2019 Tomppa had just joined the band and we’d sifted through about 30 songs I’d demoed, to choose around a dozen to…

I guess I wanted to create one version of ”the perfect album closer” with this track. Slow but steady build to a cathartic release of emotion and power and a quiet haunting outro. For some reason it reminds me of…

If yesterday I told you about the most painless and fast production experience with ”Plastic”, this song is the exact opposite. It took ages and ages to get right which probably isn’t much of a surprise either as it’s a…

This is the last song that I wrote for the album. I initially thought the power pop aspect to it was a bit much at first, but I hardly had to mix the whole thing – it just magically locked…

This song sounds the most like Rage Against the Machine on this record – if you only go by the lyrics. When you listen to the song musically it’s about as much removed from RATM as you could think. It’s…

Conversations with an Algorithm is actually what the album was meant to be called before I came up with the term ”botify” (only to later learn I wasn’t the first one at all). This is the second track on the…

This song is about burnout, plain and simple. The chorus has your colleagues wondering ”Oh, my word, but the boy is dead!” when you finally break down from exhaustion – while you probably could’ve used their help earlier as stated…

Sometimes you really don’t know which songs are going to be singles from an album – which songs are going to be the ones you use to tell people about the album, and which ones to make music videos of…

Our new single Scream Into The Void is out today. All its proceeds will go towards helping the children in the Ukraine. Sometimes releasing music seems suddenly insignificant due to world events around you. I wrestled with myself whether to…

Hey everyone,

and welcome back to our new site, entirely redesigned in the vein of our new EP "Songs from Tuesday"!

I'd never have thought the break from recording Fisherman stuff would be this short, but the idea of putting…

It's been a while, to state the obvious first.

Seeing as all our endeavours around the release of 'The Hurt & The Humour' didn't quite pan out the way we'd have liked, I decided to go back to our roots…

Admittedly it's kind of counter-intuitive, but the fact is that while on Friday we made our biggest and most important release with our debut album 'The Hurt & The Humour' fact is that playing live with this full band…

Part 3 of our THTH trilogy!

Ugly 

This is me pissed off. Pissed off at everyone, pissed off at the world, but most of all just pissed at myself. I think it’s about rejection in essence though…

Part 2 of our trilogy. Tracks 4-7 of 'The Hurt & The Humour'...explained?

Beggar Princess 

Our first release and by all accounts still our most listened to and watched song on all our platforms. I mean, it…

Like all good things, let us do this as a trilogy as well. 'The Hurt & The Humour' has 11 tracks and each one of them harbours a unique little story of its own. So here are the stories…

Skinny Dip 
(featuring Tuukka on lead guitar and Karza on melodica) 

I literally wrote this on a bike on my ride between jobs. I’d just written the guitar part so it was playing in my head while I…

Today, on October 12th, Lazlo of BlowUpRadio.com releases his annual Banding Together benefit compilation for the Spondylitis Association of America. And for the first time, The Fisherman & The Sea are prominently featured on this whopping 35 song compilation featuring…

It's been one year now that The Fisherman & The Sea has been around your eardrums and eyeballs. So – time to sit back and let a few memories fly past at blog speed!

I remember sitting at…

Hey one and all!

It's the birthday of our second EP today and we've christened it 'Stuck With A Rhyme'. You can say "Hi, and welcome to the world!" in these places f.ex.:

    Yeah, so I’m just another one of those people transported to scenes and memories of my early childhood by the brilliantly made ’Stranger Things’ on Netflix. And whereas the new video doesn’t feature monsters or any sort of special…

Oh sweet release date!

What a wonderful feeling to finally – after such a laborious half year – be able to give you the first proper glimpse of what The Fisherman & The Sea is all about. It's…
