Hi Attila,


Nice to hear from you. Lately I've got more and more fan post about Ieva's Polka. That has been a great suprice for all the member of Loituma, because we are not anymore actively making music together. But it is so nice to hear from you that you like our music.


There is no official home page for the band. I'm planning on collecting some links to my home page, but I've not yet done it. Here are some links for you. This is a quotation from the e-mail I got from our publisher in the USA. (http://www.noside.com/artists.html)


Hi Timo,


Something's happening with Levan Polkka on the web! Check out

for a quickly expanding range of home-made videos using it as the soundtrack! These have all been posted in the last week, and some of these sites are getting thousands of hits each day! And every time I've checked in the past 24 hours, there have been more posted. We've been trying to update band links so that if anyone wants to know more about Loituma, they end up at our site.

I hope you'll find something interesting there. (I've not yet checked them all out yet, so forgive me if there is something that disturbes you.)


I've visited in Hungary and Austria some times, I've had solo concerts in Vienna, Graz, Budapest and Pécs. I have also a friend family in Békéscsaba.




All the best to you, thanks for your message,
Timo
