Jartse Tuominen

"Time Of Change" features the progressive fusion and rock blend of Finnish guitarist Jartse Tuominen supported by drummer Anssi Nykanen, keyboardist Pekka Siistonen and bassist Jukka Kampman. How to describe their music? Let's assume that Billy Cobham, Steve Gadd, Al Di Meola, Steve Vai, Steve Morse, Billy Sheehan and Jaco Pastorius were in the audience at a Jartse Tuominen gig. They would certainly recogize aspects of their own music, but they wouldn't be able to keep their butts on the bench. Tuominen departed from the all-instrumental style on the last two tracks, co-writing a couple of vocal tunes with singer Yvonne Charbonneau, a monster talent in her own right.
