4 years ago | June 7, 2021 | Written By


The Rasmus frontman Lauri Ylönen has teamed up with Blind Channel vocalists Niko Vilhelm and Joel Hokka for a special “Bedroom Sessions” cover of their viral hit ‘Dark Side’.

Blind Channel recently performed ‘Dark Side’ at the Eurovision Song Contest, which saw the band getting to sixth place. Check out their performance here:

Talking about the collaboration, Blind Channels Joel Hokka said “Lauri and The Rasmus are hands off – one of the most legendary Finnish rock exports. I remember as a kid watching those black feathers on TV and jammin’ Dead Letters. When Lauri called me and asked for a collab we couldn’t say no.”
