Biography : Heimia

Heimia was founded in july 2004 by four musicians (Guitar: Teemu Aakko, Bass: Petri Henell, Vocals: Ticu Korhonen, Drums: Jussi Kaukonen).

Heimia has released two demos, "Heimia" in the year 2004, "Hell Yeah" 2006, and one EP, Hell Yeah 2007.

In May 2008, Teemu Hautaniemi and Petri Saarela decided to leave the band. And soon after that Petri Henell, the bassist, gave up with the band too. So we had to find replacements, and we sure as hell did !! The new drummer is named Jake Pistokoski and the bassist is named Kai Kauranen. In october 2008, we completed the line-up with a stunning sologuitarist named Pete Gaidamak. The story ain't over just yet.

This is not the end, this is REBIRTH !!
