The quartet was noted as one of the highlights in the showcase festival Tallinn Music Week 2017 and has performed in Finland, Estonia and Norway. Their debut album Ihantola, released in 2017 has been described as “a joy, taking the listener on a journey of unexpected peaks and valleys of experimental and exploratory music.”

Barlast is releasing their second album in 2019 and the concert in at the Opus Jazz Club is part of the record release tour.

The concert has been supported by The Swedish Cultural Foundation in Finland
