This week’s #ThursdayFiveList theme is #supportyourlocals
Olli Haavisto is one of the musicians that you regularly see at local events in my present home town, Järvenpää. Over the years, he has played with many of the Finnish top artists - in this video, he appears as a guest playing steel guitar:
Ninni Poijärvi & Mika Kuokkanen & Olli Haavisto: Going Fishing & Get Right Church and Let's Go Home (2015)

There's a nearly endless amount of excellent Finnish music, so to fill the rest of my list, I just picked four random classics from the past years:
Melrose: Rich Little Bitch (1986)
