Leo Stillman solo @ Bar Bäkkäri

Sunday night 29.07.2012 Leo Stillman from Face of God was performing solo with a lot of other artists in Bar Bäkkäri. Acoustic performances for a birthday party. Strong Addiction Seba and Heikki and also Ville and Eero from the band "The Liar" were giving guitar sounds and voices to its best. Lende´s voice was very strong and the acoustic performance was again a candy for everybodies ear. Spontaneity Pete Parkkonen showed up in the end. He gave his powerful voice to its best and joined Lende in the end with the performance of the Face of God song "Bad". Everybody tried to sing the oohhhhooooohhhhoooo with them, but it didn’t went that well people were already too tipsy. Pete Parkkonen gave his best to perform with Lende together also if it wasn’t voluntarily, Leo just put him into the spotlight and he needed to join. Great show, we all had a lot of fun to watch this. A big thank you to everybody that attended the acoustic night more or less voluntarily :)

Face of God @ On The Rocks

Fucking insane!!! On the Rocks yesterday night. Face of God was performing with Scene D´ Chryme. Around 11.30 pm in the night the guys enter to the stage and the audience was supporting so much as never before. Lot of people came to see the gig as well lot of friends. Everybody had a lot of fun and were singing, dancing and rocking out to the best alternative rock music in town. Crazy lyrics that pop up in your mind and are loved by everyone are very welcome. Brilliant new songs were performed. "Dance" was one of the new songs and came along with strong beats and Leo Stillman´s great voice. An all the time getting more powerful voice and the sound is improving to its best. Benjamin our blond bass player from town who slipped last weekend out of the team to play Ozzy Osbourne covers is back now with much stronger bass riffs than even before. Oscar needed to be careful to not break the drums that belong to Scene D´ Chryme again, but he came along with strong beats as well. Leo jumping into the audience is not scaring the people anymore he is just motivating them to rock and dance more, the Helsinki Face of God audience got use to this.

White trousers shining out of the crowd and somehow he forgot his shirt or sparkling jacket at home, but much better that way. Perfect sounds and a perfect look is just achieving  the goal of good show together and our Trio is getting specialists in that from time to time. Thanx to Carlings as clothes sponsoring *hihi* The audience in On the Rocks got definitely heated in and it was way too hot and to perfectly sounded what we saw in that night. If you wanna get more Face of God you need to travel to Loviisa to Backyard Rock today or join on Sunday to Bar Bäkkäri and see Leo Stillman performing solo. He is also very talent alone, but much better in company of Benjamin and Oscar. Face of God, we will hear so much more of those guys.... 

…and everybody will scream again like yesterday night: WE WANT MORE!!!

Thank you Face of God for perfect alternative rock music. 

Luomustudio evening at Café Mascot

Yesterday night (20.07.2012)  Face of God was part of the program of the Luomustudio evening that was organized by the Luomustudio video production company. Sure the logo of the Tomato was everywhere. Juuso made even 80 pieces of entrance ticket and backstage passes himself and gave it out to the artists and guest, showing the typical Luomustudio tomato logo:

5 amazing bands were performing on the acoustic stage in Café Mascot in Helsinki/Kallio: Father Simon, Face of God, Black Twig, Home Junior and Wedding Crashers. Father Simon opened the evening with a chill out rock pop music that everybody was enjoying and then it was again once more the time of Face of God. 

After the "One world tour" that happened in month May our guys are acoustic specialists now, i bet nobody ever stage so many acoustic shows in so little amount of time. Maybe someday they will write a record with staging the most acoustic shows ever :) Elephant the song that is coming with the movie 3 Simoa now to the cinemas was the song that got videotaped from the video production company Luomustudio, with the big tomato banner in the background every band was performing one song for the Luomustudio video from that evening. Very talent artists and New comer bands showed up. Face of God set a sparkel with their great acoustic sounds, as more they perform as better they are getting. Leo Stillman learned how to engage the audience to sing with him and clap the hands in the rhythm of the music, if we all remember the beginning of Face of God there was a tiny, shy boy on stage who was nervous before every show if it will work out right... now there is no shyness anymore, lot of self-confidence and an always more improving voice. Maybe he is still a bit nervous before the shows, but he got used to perform in front of a crowd. 

Week 28: JULY

After the great success of the "ONE WORLD" tour it is not getting quiet about our Trio. Festivals are coming up and outside gigs. This week we could enjoy Face of God at Wednesday evening on the live stage of the Esplanadi Park (Espan lava). Super sunshine, but a bit windy took lot of people to the Esplanadi Park to enjoy awesome alternative rock music. Leo Stillman came up with two new songs he presented with success on the huge live stage together with Benjamin and Oscar. Crazy minded like always, he committed that he is too drunk to make love tonight in one of his songs. Yep, can happen when you are a Fin. After the great outdoor gig of Wednesday, Leo was surprising the audience in Boothill Bar/Helsinki on Friday with a solo performance in acoustic version. He made the whole Bar sing the aaahhhhhaaaaahhhhaaaaahhhh of "Duck" and as well people needed to commitment with him that they are too drunk to make love tonight. The show must go on and Sunday it was time to enjoy great sunshine and warm weather in the Alppipuisto (park) in Helsinki where Face of God was attending the "Pitkä kuuma kesä (hot long summer) Festival" On the Sound-Inn-Paviljonki stage the guys showed their acoustic gig talent once more. People loved the happy mood sound of the songs and clapped their hands to the rhythm. "Diamantes" went again under the skin and "Bad" just made you move. A big thank you again to our guys, who are so awesome in staging live shows, really good and talent, we all adore them. Now they have their own training room in the Nightclub Nosturi, where as well HIM is training those days. Face of God is on the best way to join to the very famous once, one day.

It was a great time and every time a different song was shoot by the talent guys of luomustudio production. Our trio had a lot of fun, we all remember the joke Lende told in front of Tennispalatsi. How many folk musicians are need to change a lamp? ;) Oscu who had all the time his fingers bleeding because of drumming too much and Benjamin who got kissed by Leo on the stage in the Club Perkele. Jaaaaaauuuuuuuuuugggggghhhhhhh like the piranhas in sealife are saying, a hard half of rock´n´roll time is behind us. Lot of new Face of God fans are joining all the time to support our guys everyday, the fan community is getting bigger and bigger. Right now there is nobody anymore in Helsinki city who has not heard about the band. The success is build up step by step, the next goal to achieve is the international market. Our trio who loves music and with Lende who never can even stop playing and always performs more songs than planned and is still all the time singing before and afterwards, jamming with his guitar, it will be no problem to show how awesome this band is!!!

Day 5: Tennispalatsi with Nimetön

Sunday, sunshine and Face of God inside Tennispalatsi. No we were not going to watch a movie, we surprised the people that came out of the movie. Starting at 4 pm with Nimetön and the beautiful female voice of Inka Halme. Everybody in the cinema lobby was inspirit and enjoyed great live music. As Nimetön performed everybody was sitting on the stairs and listening and Face of God finally made the people get up and come in front to dance and have fun. Red bull girls filled the guys up with a bit more cans. Face of God music and the taste of red bull belong already together :) Our young ladies were dancing and singing again and finally the absolute new beautiful song Diamond got shoot by luomustudio production. A song that goes under your skin ;)

And poor Oscar needed to tape his finger that he could continue playing, that´s really rock´n´roll. There was no need for movies, the show of our guys were much better. Afterward sun and sitting on the terrace for a few drinks, yep summer is coming.
