VOODOOV

(FIN) – Psychedelic Rock / Indie Pop / Funk

VoodooV is a four-piece groove machine from Finland that combines tight funk rhythms, smooth choruses, and psychedelic solos with the intensity of a rock band. Their sound blends influences ranging from ’60s funk and psych-rock to modern indie and beyond.

Formed during pandemic-era jam sessions in a studio nicknamed “The Bunker,” VoodooV quickly evolved from a group of friends into a full-fledged band. The name, a palindrome, reflects the band’s spiritual philosophy—energy flowing back and forth between the audience and the performers, chaos and groove.

Their 2023 debut album, “Jamgem,” captured the spontaneous spirit of those Bunker sessions—a reaction to the surrounding madness of uncertain times. With singles like “Black Market Bubblegum,” the album resonated with listeners far beyond Finland and was released digitally and on vinyl for a growing international audience.

As the Jamgem era came to a close, the band already had new material in the works. In early 2024, they entered the studio with producer Raphael Neikes (Spiral Drive, Mother’s Cake), marking the transition from DIY isolation to global collaboration. While finishing the new album in Germany, VoodooV played their first international concerts and presented their high-energy live set to audiences abroad.

Their new album, “Hello World,” released in November 2025, explores themes such as digital alienation, online populism, and the commercialization of spirituality. Despite its critical perspective, the album maintains an ironic, optimistic tone, featuring danceable grooves and a multifaceted blend of psychedelic rock, indie pop, and funk.

With one foot still firmly rooted in the sweat-soaked rehearsal spaces of their past and the other boldly stepping onto international stages, VoodooV looks outward—ready to forge connections, evolve, and groove even more intensely.

Tune in, get into the groove, let loose. Have fun.
