Bearwood is a fresh Finnish rock band founded by guitarist and composer Marko Karhu. The other members are Marko Hietala (vocals / ex-Nightwish), Sami Sallinen (bass, keys, guitar and other stringed instruments), and Sami Kuoppamäki (drums).
Known for their gritty guitar rock, Bearwood lightens up for the summer. “Promises”, inspired by 1980s synth-pop, tells a story of youthful dreams and broken promises — cruising smoothly like a convertible down California’s West Coast. This heartfelt performance won’t leave anyone cold — not even during the (in)famous Finnish summer.
Together, the band has forged a unique soundscape where the creative fingerprints of every member can be felt — an electrifying synergy that elevates their music to something greater than the sum of its parts. Bearwood’s music defies convention — an intriguing fusion of rock laced with bluesy undertones, progressive twists, and even a touch of pop. It’s a soundscape that’s as versatile as it is captivating, pulling listeners into a realm where the familiar meets the unexpected.
