About this release

"The return will take place in the name of Masa Orpana Honki, drummer Juppo Paavola from Olmarimiehi is on the way for the saxophone-playing Orpana, and also bassist Ville Rauhala will visit with a few songs to take a break from Ville Vallila, who plays electric bass in the band.
The sound of the Orpana Tenor Saxophone is softly vibrating, warm to the touch. The small band invests in compactness and swing, melody and feeling are high in the order of importance. In solos, you don't reach out, you feel. Travelin' home is a stylish praise of a soft, creative home. Stripping away everything unnecessary brings a calm and grateful mind to the listener as well."

Reviews

Travelin’ home on umpityylikäs muhevan luomusvengin ylistys. Kaiken turhan riisuminen tuo kuulijallekin levollisen ja kiitollisen mielen.
