AMERICAN indie rock group OK Go arrives to Finland for the first time next week. The four strong band has been touring around Europe over the summer, making Finland their final stop before returning back to the US.

OK Go was originally formed in 1998 in Chicago. The group has since relocated to the City of Angels and seen the change of one its members. The band shot to an international breakthrough with its second album Oh No in 2005, much to the gain of the music video of the album single Here it Goes Again. The exceptional video became one of the most watched YouTube music videos of all time and the band was also granted a Grammy award for the video.
