Rock veterans are joining forces for a rare concert featuring The Barnshakers’ best-known tracks as well as Pete’s classic recordings – and much more.
Boppin’ Pete, otherwise known as Petri Näsman, is a veteran roots musician from Helsinki. Under the name Boppin’ Pete, he became one of the driving forces behind the 1950s’ rock and roll and rockabilly craze in Finland. In the 1980s, Näsman recorded an album for the legendary Rebel label and appeared in the cult film Rokkidiggari.
The Barnshakers are Finland’s most internationally successful rockabilly band, whose career spanning more than 30 years has included numerous tours around the world, collaborations with many artists, and acclaimed releases on the Finnish label Goofin Records.
