The story
Dalindèo is a Finnish jazz-sextet founded and led by composer/guitarist Valtteri Pöyhönen. The intention of the group is to keep the original jazz spirit alive with heavy emphasis on danceable rhytms, strong melodies and the craftmanship of top musicians.
After Dalindèo's early mix of brazilica and jazz the group has developed their style into something more personal: this post-modern style is called "Cinematic Jazz". Drawing on the influence of jazz-composers such as Henry Mancini, Lalo Schifrin and the great Duke Ellington, Valtteri Pöyhönen and his team create high-class jazz-music for the 21st century.
As a live act Dalindèo has gained a reputation as a tight and energetic performer. The bands interplay is as tight as ever after 150+ gigs in Finland and 12 other European countries since the release of debut album "Open Scenes" in 2007.
