Music making process to Broken Window means a lot of fun and hard work. They work together on all songs and everybody is equal. They get their inspiration from big emotions (good and bad) and strong melodies.

It all started out in 2003 Spring, when we all met in a school musical "Flai Hai". All of the original members played or acted in the musical and we decided to form a rock group after the musical. And so we did.
The line-up back then was Juuso Heljaste - guitar, Juho Ingström - guitar, Anna Eteläaho - keyboards, Tuomas Konttinen - vocals, Matti Erikkilä - drums and Henkka Kovanen - bass. After playing for a month or two, Henkka got bored and quit band. Anna then had to play the bass (she didn't really want to, although she's a hell of a bass player!) for a while until we found Mentor Osmani, or Metu, to play bass. So the current line-up was formed and we started to do music more seriously.
After training hard for many months and having a lot of long, sleepless nights, Broken Window had it's first show at a birthday party on the 17th of January 2004. We were supported by my girlfriend Aura Lyytikäinen (who appeared in the musical as a producer, writer, co-director and what-not... ;) and Serafiina Julkunen (who ALSO appeared in the musical - as an actor). The show went great and we even got a few offers to play more at some events! Now we're planning to get a demo out soon, so watch out!
Over and out.
