The Profile

Tenhi is a Finnish neofolk ensemble from Kemi (Finnish Lapland), active since 1996. They perform in Finnish and weave acoustic guitars, piano, strings and ambient touches into nature-evoking songs across albums such as Kauan, Väre, Maaäet, Airut:Aamujen and Saivo.

Core members include Tyko Saarikko and Ilmari Issakainen; early member Ilkka Salminen was a co-founder. Reviews note the Airut series (Airut:Ciwi, Airut:Aamujen) and describe Saivo (2011) as completing a trilogy begun with Airut:Aamujen and Maaäet. Compilations and rarities include Folk Aesthetic 1996–2006.

Finnish ensemble Tenhi explores neofolk/dark folk with Finnish-language vocals and nature-drenched imagery. Reviews praise the debut Kauan, the wintry sweep of Väre, the piano-led Airut:Aamujen, and the expansive Saivo. Arrangements blend acoustic guitars, piano, strings, and subtle electronics with tribal shades. Overall sentiment is consistently enthusiastic.
