The Band called Breadmachine

Breadmachine is led by one of Finland's most recognized trumpet players, Antero Priha.
Priha has been one of Finland's busiest trumpetists for twenty years. The other
members of Breadmachine are also the hardest working men in finnish music scene.

In addition to numerous finnish musicians, Priha
has also performed with many international jazz
artists, such as Ray Charles, Joe Henderson,
Freddie Hubbard, Carla Bley, Louie Bellson and
Georgie Fame, to mention but few.

Breadmachine released its first album, Eternal Friendship, in 1998.
Priha's and bassist Ape Anttila's music is an easy blend of many modern
influences (hip-hop, soul, jazzbossa, be-bop & lush-loop).
In January 2001, Breadmachine released its second album called Loveship.
Like Eternal Friendship, Loveship is a loving blend of various musical influences
and rhythms from around the globe. Some of the key tunes on this record are
Priha's mellow Mañana and almost devout Prayer. Seppo Kantonen composed a
colossal piece called Giant for Loveship.

The third album Starship Babies could be loosely categorised as jazz for generation X; a tasty mix of ultra
modern sounscapes, groovy rythms and timeless jazz harmonies.

Under the Greenwood Tree album has five vocal songs featuring new and old masters of top finnish singers:
Ismo Alanko, Roni Martin, Tuomari Nurmio, Emma Salokoski. Four instrumental songs featuring Tapani Rinne, Heikki Keskinen, Mikko Mustonen, Teho Rajamäki, Panu Syrjänen and Ippe Kätkä.
The record will be published on spring 2007. Check out the news page.
