Ismo Alanko, who is currently working on new music, will be touring widely across the country next year. The artist, who has been shaping the Finnish musical scene for four decades, will kick off his Kevyt ja kohtuuton tour in February.

The creative singer-songwriter recently released a preview of his new album, due out next year, in the form of the single Loppuaikana. The song is the third part of Alanko's hedonistic trilogy, which consists of the classics Kulkurin iltakalja (1980) and Taitelijaelämää (1995).

The upcoming album, produced in collaboration with his long-time colleague Riku Mattila, will be released in early spring 2026. The band El Mosquito, which has been touring with Alanko for 13 years, will accompany him on the album and tour.
