The Twangers "Absolute Twang" 2004

1960s style schlager pop rock from Kuusankoski (now part of Kouvola), Finland.
Raili Eronen & Twangers is a Finnish band whose repertoire consists of 1960s rock songs and hits. The band's singer is Raili Eronen (real name Jaana Korja, born 1957), and her husband Torsti Korja formed the Twangers band from Kuusankoski in the fall of 1988. The original line-up included Torsti Korja (lead guitar), Mika Viskari (accompaniment guitar), Jori Hellsten (bass) and Petri Tähtinen (drums). The first single "Jäljet ​​hiekassa"/"Kolme kitaraa" (Impulse Records) was released in the fall of 1990. The following year, the group, which started out under the name Twangers, added the stage name of their singer to its name. In 1992, Raili Eronen & Twangers received a recording contract with Finnlevyn and in 1993, the debut album bearing the band's name was released. The band performed regularly until the end of 1996, when the original Twangers disbanded. The following spring, Torsti and Jaana Korja formed a new Twangers line-up. In the 2000s, the band performed a few times a year.
In addition to Torsti Korja (guitars), the second album in 2005 features Lasse Pesonen (bass), Satu Liikkanen (organ) and Jouni Rydenfelt (drums).
