Ultra Bra

Ultra Bra was a Finnish pop rock group. It was founded in 1994 when then newly established band took part in a political song contest of the Finnish Left Youth organisation. Encouraged by the victory, they decided to continue making music. Led by founder and pianist Kerkko Koskinen, who also composed most of the band's songs, Ultra Bra gained huge success in Finland in the late 1990s. The band released four studio albums before disbanding in 2001, after which most of its members began working on other bands and projects. Following two reunion appearances in 2007 and 2012, the band played a final tour of six concerts in 2017.
