Timeline
Valtteri Laurell Pöyhönen (born September 23, 1978, in Helsinki, Finland) is a Finnish jazz guitarist, pianist, composer, bandleader and producer.
He is best known as bandleader and composer of the 20-headed Ricky-Tick Big Band and the award-winning jazz-sextet Dalindèo.
Valtteri Laurell Pöyhönen grew up in Helsinki, Finland.
In 2003, Pöyhönen founded the jazz-sextet Dalindèo.
The group's line-up consists of Valtteri Laurell Pöyhönen (guitar, bandleader), Jose Mäenpää (trumpet), Petri "Pope" Puolitaival (saxophone and flute), Rasmus Pailos (percussion), Pekka Lehti (double-bass, from summer 2004 on) and Jaska Lukkarinen (drums).
Dalindèo's early music was a fusion between Brazilian jazz, hard bop and Exotica.
Since 2009, Pöyhönen has divided his time between Berlin and Helsinki.
In 2009, after studying composition for a year in Paris, Pöyhönen founded the Ricky-Tick Big Band.
The 16-member big band took its name from the Helsinki-based record label Ricky-Tick Records, and the original line-up included many of the label's artists, including saxophonist Timo Lassy and trumpetist Jukka Eskola.
In 2010 Pöyhönen finished his master studies in jazz composition from the jazz department of the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki.
He has also studied at the Conservatoire de Paris, the Codarts and Helsinki's Pop and Jazz Conservatory.
The group released their self-titled debut album Ricky-Tick Big Band in 2010.
In 2012, Pöyhönen met with rapper Paleface and drummer Jaska Lukkarinen to contemplate a collaboration of big band jazz and rap.
From 2013 onwards, heavy surf guitars and rockabilly-sounds have been prominent in the group's sound.
The group's fourth studio album Kallio became a huge success, and received the prestigious Emma-award as "Jazz Album of the Year" in 2013.
The group's debut album Burnaa was released in 2013 and was a critical success, debuting at number four on the Finnish national album chart and staying in the Top 10 for 11 weeks.
Consequently, the group toured all over Finland in jazz and rock festivals.
In 2014 premiered Pöyhönen's suite A Nocturnal Affair (Yön Rakastaja) for big band and tenor sax soloist, which was commissioned by the UMO Jazz Orchestra, featuring Timo Lassy on tenor saxophone.
Pöyhönen has also written several string and horn arrangements for rap artist Paleface, including "Palamaan" from the movie soundtrack to Pahan Kukat and the tracks "Snaijjaa", "Vangin Laulu", and on the album Maan Tapa.
