Tommi Mykkänen

Lapua

Summary

Hey You! I am Tommi Aleksi Mykkänen. I am now 58 years old and a professional musician and a songwriter. In music, I have been in a few hundred orchestras performing a few thousand gigs with different instruments, because I am an multi-instrumentalist. 30 years of experience in performing. Same in studio-musician works. Also, I have done about 500 songs, mostly in English (maybe 10 songs in Finnish). Pretty sure that I could be the man. Multi-tasking is one of my top preferences. Then comes quick problem-solving. Call me, any time, +358466217951 or mail to tommi.mykkanen@hotmail.com (you will be delighted) :-)
