Artist History The Martin Ilmoni story begins in 1963. That was the year this multi-talented songwriter and artist saw the light of day in Helsinki, Finland. Although brought up with the Beatles playing in the background and with music an integral part of his life from the beginning, it was in the 80's that Martin set out on a Rock & Roll career. He led "The Shaking Legs", a group consisting of school time buddies playing mainly old old rock & roll standards and 50's ballads. Despite playing some locally famous gigs and having a good time, The Shaking Legs soon faded. Later in the 80's Martin started composing his own material and soon his demo tapes began gathering notice. Meanwhile, he toured extensively in Finland with a group called April Moon. In the early 90's Martin signed with EMI, and released, under his own name, the "Kultalankaa" (Gold Thread) album in 1994.The next album "Monsuunimaileja" (Monsoon Miles) was an independent release, in 1998.
