Jartse Tuominen

”How to describe his 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 recognize aspects of their own music, but they wouldn't be able to keep their butts on the bench.” -Guitar Nine News, USA (2008) Jartse Tuominen is not only an exceptionally talented guitarist, but also an ingenious composer and a dedicated producer with style and sophistication.
