"My voice, my piano, my beats." Anni Pohto’s music is like the northern sun. Sensitive yet powerful, it's filled with strong contradictions taking us from the depths of endless darkness into the magic of nightless summer nights.
In music, Anni Pohto found her rebellion and her therapy. Growing up in the political atmosphere of the 90s Finland, she witnessed the fall of the Soviet Union next door and the Balkan war in the news. Wanting to understand the dark side of humanity, she dove deep into the creative worlds of songs and books. She searched for solace and empowerment as much in classical and jazz piano as in feminist icons from Princess Leia to the girl power of Spice Girls.
Since the release of DEEP, the first song on her concept album The Rising representing the 17 stages of emotional vibrations, Anni Pohto's career has started to ascend: she has worked with award-winning filmmakers, “everywoman” video has gone viral, and the song can be heard as the theme of a TV-series. Her songs have been consistently placed on official Spotify playlists and played on national radio stations.
Finnish women have been making global headlines during the last years. No wonder: their no-BS attitude is a refreshing breeze in an often shallow and impatient world. They don’t just walk the talk, they dance the talk. Anni Pohto’s album will be released in the fall 2025, and based on the determination and eloquence with she is taking every step, it is evident that #TheRisingHasStarted.
