Bearwood

Bearwood began as guitarist Marko Karhu‘s vision for a solo project. In 2020, he set out to write guitar-driven rock that transcends genre boundaries.
Soon, Marko’s compositions were complemented by evocative lyrics from Matthieu Brandt.
After producer and multi-instrumentalist Sami Sallinen, drummer Sami Kuoppamäki, and vocalist Marko Hietala joined in, the solo project turned into a band project with original material being released from late 2024.
