----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Elias Kahila, 26, is working on bringing cello to the world of funk and pop music.

"It starts from learning the blues for both hands. Rhytmic stuff has
always influenced me the most, bands like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Michael Jackson,
Toto, Stevie Wonder.. Later there will be a CD and gigs, containing best songs from
these bands - but with this crazy funk-cello twist."

Kahila released his 1st solo-album in 2006 ("Break Point"),
and toured 116 gigs in Finland & Holland.

Along that, Kahila likes to co-work other bands. He is a member in
"DEAD BY YOU" and "ANTONY PARVIAINEN TRIO"

Kahila started playing at the age of 7. So far he´s done 600 gigs, from classical to rock.
Kahila is also a pop/jazz cello teacher.

In studio, he has worked with many great producers, for ex. Jyri Sariola
(Soul Captain Band, Idols) & Johnny Lee Michaels (69 Eyes).
