Wintersun - Drummer Timo Häkkinen To Fill In For Kai Hahto
In March, the Finns Wintersun will co-headline Paganfest 2015 with Turisas. However, the drummer Kai Hahto will not be joining the band on their upcoming shows due to his gig with Nightwish. Timo Häkkinen ( Sotajumala) will fill in for him during that time. The band still plans to do the crowdfunding campaign but that will take time to plan.
The band offered: "Due to the Nightwish duties Kai is not able to perform the upcoming Wintersun live shows with us. Therefore we are proud to announce that Timo Häkkinen ( Sotajumala) will be filling in for the time being. A great drummer and also Kai's friend, we are going to blast our live shows like before! Cheers!"
Kai Hahto said the following: "As most of the shows during 2015 will collide with Nightwish there was no other option than to get Timo to do the shows I can't. I will be back in 2016 for sure. Cheers!"
Timo Häkkinen is happy to help: "I am very honored to fill in for Kai and to help the band out. Kai is a dear friend as well as my all-time favorite drummer. I look forward to the experience and embrace the challenge - see you on the road!"
