Raskasta Joulua in acoustic turned out to provide a very different experience than their usual gigs. The atmosphere of this show was way more emotional and intimate than its heavier counterparts. The short set at Tampere’s Kaleva Church felt like a relaxed evening of singing Christmas corals with friends and family.

For this set the Raskasta Joulua line up was stripped down to just the band (Timo Pudas, Erkki Silvennoinen, Erkka Korhonen, Tuomas Wäinölä and Mirka Rantanen) and three singers, Antti Railio, Marko Hietala and Ilja Jalkanen.
