Ruamjai - Hengitetään

Hengitetään

The theme for Ruamjai in 2021 is "Hengitetään", translating to "Let's breath". Thereby we're releasing a new music video, also introducing our new artistic director: Jaime Belmonte.

The coronavirus pandemic has struck the cultural field hard, as well as Ruamjai. However, with this video we want to bring hope that we'll soon be breathing the same common air with our audience.

Ruamjai - Suomalainen

Ruamjai: Super Flumina Babylonis

Suomalainen

Ruamjai turns 20 in 2020 and to honor that we released new material! On April 18th at 4 pm Ruamjai's 20th anniversary concert was to begin, but due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the concert will take place next year. Despite this, we wanted to celebrate this exact time with a music video, with everyone involved in making it in isolation. This video is Ruamjai's way of wishing everyone a happy spring, let's all stay safe and hug when it is safe to do so!
