Finnish lovesong balladeer Bobby Oroza resides on Big Crown, the ever pleasantly groovy label of Leon Michels (El Michels Affair) where Surprise Chef, Lee Fields and Holy Hive are also members of the family. The son of a Bolivian mother and Finnish father, Oroza grew up in the multicultural eastern part of Helsinki, where he had access to the family's extensive record collection. Mother taught music and sang tango, father was a jazz guitarist, and the music young Bobby was brought up with ranged from South American folk, to Motown classics, to Doo-wop crooners and records his father picked up in West Africa. Anyone hearing Bobby Oroza immediately feels the warm love for timeless music with a beating heart.

A romantic crooner, Bobby Oroza performs like a modern dandy, with pencil moustache and spikily dressed. His warm tenor is carried by his guitar playing, which he copied from Django and Jazz. With 'This Love' and 'Get On The Otherside', Bobby Oroza has two wonderful records under his belt. Tipped as the best European soul singer of the moment. Breaking Waves!
