About Me

"If I could play like you I wouldn't build guitars."
-Jean Larrivee, founder of Larrivee Guitars

"Funky groovy world by just one acoustic guitar. There is no limit for guitar's possibility! His splendid one man band style reminds me that!"
-Kotaro Oshio

"Sariola amazes me in his creativity during this CD to constantly capture a listener in unexpected new melody-lines and foremost in rousing guitar storms. Very impressive and talented musician, make sure you get a copy of Silence!"
-Henk te Veldhuis, Bridge Guitar Reviews
**** - Rumba & Noise.fi, 8/10 Sue Magazine

Petteri Sariola plays a very percussive style that he calls ‘slam’. It’s an explosive mix sourced from different music, instruments, tunings and techniques. His ten fingers make ten instruments. He sounds like two guitarists, a bass player and a percussionist – rolled into one. No tapes, no loops. This is a style that few can master.
This 23 years old virtuoso has been playing since he was 7, and is a 5th generation pro. Now, with 500 gigs under his thumb at home in Finland and abroad, he’s developed a fierce, intense and energetic presence that draws a crowd to any stage, large or small. He loves to play. Throw in some sweet soul and delta blues vocals, add a sprinkling of laidback humour, and you get a unique act that never fails to get people on the edge of their seats.
Petteri was awarded the coveted Nokia Young Talent scholarship in 2005 – the youngest ever, and before he had even graduated from the conservatory. He also received an Honorary Price in the Funk Awards 2007.
Petteri’s debut LP "SILENCE!" came out 26th of September 2007 from Plastinka Records!
