Biography
Essentia is an alternative rock-band from Tampere, Finland
with its roots in Hämeenkyrö. The band was formed in 2001
and today, after 10 years, the five-membered brotherhood is
taking new steps and celebrates their 10th anniversary with
the release of the debutalbum "Decade".
The songs on "Decade" have been composed during the
years gone by so they represent the different phases
Essentia has gone through.
The lyrics may criticize domestic violence but they also
remind the listeners about the importance of fighting for one’s
dreams and tell how a smile has a great power over all the
evil, just to mention a few themes.
The band’s style has gradually developed to its current form
that could be described as straightforward but multifaceted
rock.
Essentia has played approximately 200 gigs and participated
in a few interesting projects including making the first Nordic
music video in 3D (Suicide in Chinatown) and a tour in
Europe in 2008.
