KAMA Kollektiv is an Amsterdam-based group around Finnish vocalist/trumpeter Kirsi-Marja “Kiki” Harju, and band members from Israel, Germany and Finland.

The bandleader Kiki tells stories – some in Finnish, some in English – about love, transformation, small everyday things and pleasures & a mystical view of nature through music which combines jazz, Nordic folk and indie pop.
