Sanni, also known as Sanni Mari Elina Kurkisuo, is a Finnish vocalist, songwriter, and actor. She won the prestigious Napero-Finlandia competition at the age of eight. Over 3,000 fairy tales were submitted by various contestants, but the winning tale was “Bird, who wanted to sing.” She was influenced by her mother’s singing heritage because she grew up in a musically-inclined family. She developed an interest in music as early as the age of five. Warner Music Finland released her début studio album titled “Sotke Mut” (which translates to “Mess me up” in English) when she was twenty years old. It was subsequently certified platinum, which is a testament to her aptitude. In addition, Sanni has produced a number of top-charting recordings over the years, including ‘Prinsessoja ja astronautteja,’ ‘2080-uvula,’ and ‘Etta mitta vittua.’ Also an occasional actress, Sanni played a pivotal character in the 2012 Finnish film Miss Farkku-Suomi, in which she appeared.
