For a long time, many thought the Finnish country scene was on its last legs. Then came 8th Road Home.
Hailing from the great plains of Ostrobothnia, the countryduo consisting of Jacob Sundström and Joel Sundkvist, carry a deep love for neo-traditional country. Their sound draws on the grit and grace of George Strait, Joe Diffie, Brooks & Dunn, and Keith Whitley, while also nodding to a new generation of torchbearers like Zach Top and Jake Worthington. The result is a style that feels both classic and fresh—rooted in tradition yet alive with their own northern character.
Already described as “the Brooks & Dunn of Ostrobothnia,” the two “J:s” balance tight honky-tonk grooves with tongue in cheek storytelling. Their music honors the greats while refusing to take itself too seriously, or?
Their debut single “Boots & Sandels” taken from the upcoming album “Greatest Hits (Volume 1)” captures this spirit perfectly. Both playful and sincere, it marks the beginning of what promises to be a new chapter for Finnish country music.
