Popeda


Popeda (not to be confused with Pobeda) is a Finnish rock band hailing from Tampere's Ikuri and one of the staples of Manserock. Epe Helenius, who signed the band for Poko Rekords in 1977, called the band Finnish Rolling Stones. Musically their style is a combination of rhythm'n'blues and boogie, with humorous lyrics by their vocalist Pate Mustajärvi, often concerning girls, cars and drinking. Popeda was founded in November 1977 by Pauli Pate Mustajärvi and Ilari Ilpo Ainiala. Popeda's 1983 album Kaasua is considered their breakthrough. Pate Mustajärvi is these days the band's only original member. The band's original guitarist Tapani Arwo Mikkonen died suddenly of a heart attack before a show in 1986. www.popeda.com Read more on Last.fm.
