Veriteras Dark Horizon Tour -Twilight Cafe and Bar

Finlandia Foundation National (FFN), a non-profit organization that champions Finnish culture and heritage across the United States, and Seattle-based melodic death metal band Veriteras, who have Finnish roots and play a Finnish style of metal, have teamed up for two heavy metal tours in 2025. The tours will focus on introducing fans of Finnish heavy metal to FFN and their local chapters.

Veriteras is a Seattle/USA-based metal band that plays a subgenre of metal that is very popular in Finland called “melodic death metal”. The band, made up of Santtu Winter (who was born in Finland), Sean Osterberg, Jason Gooselaw, and Major Bruno, was formed in 2019 and since their creation they have released 4 albums, with the most recent released in April 2024. They toured Finland in 2022, and the band’s musical style is reminiscent of Finnish bands like Kalmah, Catamenia, and Children of Bodom.

“We’re super excited to be hitting the road this coming year to spread the gospel of Finnish heavy metal! Finnish metal music has played a big role in my own life, and Finland is known for so many fantastic metal bands. It’ll be very cool to be able to connect the dots between people who are interested in Finland because of heavy metal music and local Finlandia Foundation chapters.”

The tours will include stops in:
