Story of Mannerheim started in the late 80's in Kotka, southern Finland.
First vinyl single "Hard Situation/Feel The Dawn" was released -89.
Next single "White Room/Torn to pieces" saw daylight in -92 and the first album "Feel The Dawn" was released through Bluelight Records 1998.
Self-titled album "Mannerheim" was released -98 and this led to gigs throughout Russia, Belarus, Germany and Latvia.
After taking some time off in 2000 Mannerheim got their dream gig supporting the one and only <a href="spotify:artist:568ZhdwyaiCyOGJRtNYhWf" data-name="Deep Purple">Deep Purple</a> in 2018 in Hamina, Finland.
