Mikko Innanen & Mika Kallio

About Me

We have played together in different groups from duos and trios to large orchestras since 1996. The first duo concert we played 6-7 years ago, but only during the last two years or so we have gotten into working as a Duo more seriously. However, that´s history. You ain´t heard nothing yet. The best is yet to come and babe, won´t it be fine?
