Ska is coming back at full steam! One of the most exciting groups to emerge from the scene are The Valkyrians, a five-piece ska patrol from the Finnish capital Helsinki. Their groovy tunes are a mix of early reggae, traditional 60’s Jamaican ska and British two tone, spiced up with a fresh touch. When it comes to playing live, The Valkyrians have become a stamp of quality and intensity. Rumours of their ass-kicking live shows started spreading among the wider audience in the early 2006, and already by summer, The Valkyrians’ gigs were among the most anticipated performances at the Finnish rock festivals. After the release of their debut album High and Mighty in September 2006, the group has been playing at sold-out venues all over Finland. The album debuted at no. 24 in the official Charts and the first single Rankin’ Fullstop spent over a month in Top 20, climbing at its best to no. 6. The Valkyrians were also awarded as the Most Danceable Act of 2006 by the prestigious Finnish rock magazine Rumba, and their single Do You Really Wanna Know won the Best Song of 2006 Award at the Finnish Funk Awards. High and Mighty was relased in Central Europe on the 30th of March on Pork Pie, and their first European Tour took place in April 2007. Take a ride with The Valkyrians!
