Sten-Olle concert, Nõmme Culture Centre, Tallinn

Sten-Olle is a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and composer from the tiny town of Rapla, where he proudly lives to this day. His songs have been played more than a million times on digital platforms. He describes his music as “HD everyday life”: taking the smallest, most trivial pieces of ordinary life and bringing them to people in songs, as if under a microscope.

He writes in Estonian, and his songs begin with deep lyricism that is nevertheless clear, not obscure. The music itself contrasts this with simple indie riffs and orchestral touches, so that the whole thing stays easy to digest. Recently he has started to slip jazz notes into his music, but he says he takes care not to overdo it.

His latest album, “Kehv keha” (“Bad Body”), came out in October 2025 and won the Estonian Songwriter Album of the Year title. His previous album, “Rapla”, was nominated in the songwriter category of the Estonian Music Awards in 2022.

Time and place: 21 November 2026, 18:00, Nõmme Culture Centre, Tallinn.
