Armi Harmio is a multifaceted artist persona where time, emotion, and story intertwine in a fascinating way. She was born in early 20th-century Paris, yet she simultaneously lives as a 26-year-old in Helsinki, Finland in 2024—and in the future, as her story has already been written.

Armi Harmio is the alter ego of Sanni Seppä—a reflection through which Sanni can express sides of herself she might not otherwise dare to share. This relationship is a delicate symbiosis: Sanni is both the child yearning to be heard and the adult courageously guiding Armi forward.

Armi Harmio’s voice is her most powerful tool—its fresh vibrato transports listeners straight to the golden age of Finnish schlager and the smoky clubs of 1920s French cabarets. Her music exudes a vintage atmosphere, yet the lyrics are rooted in the present day—a time when discussing difficult topics is more important than ever. Through her music, Armi explores life’s darker sides: depression, trauma, and societal issues. Alongside these themes, however, shine hope, love, the joy of self-discovery, and the small wonders of life. All of this is woven together like a theatrical performance, with Armi as both its protagonist and dramaturge.
