Aro was discovered in local singing competitions in Nokia by manager Tauno “Tappi” Suojanen while still at school. He issued his debut single “Käyn uudelleen eiliseen” in 1968 and entered Finland’s Eurovision selection for the first time the following year. Aro competed in the Finnish Eurovision heats in 1969, 1971, 1974, 1976, 1979 and 1981, winning in 1971. The Dublin performance was conducted by composer Rauno Lehtinen. During the 1970s he became one of Finland’s best-selling male vocalists. Hits from the decade include “Hyvännäköinen”, “Moskiitto”, “Jestas sentään”, “Oma kultasein”, “Anna kaikkien kukkien kukkia”, “Etsin kunnes löydän sun”, “Pois sun vien”, “Kun sä vierelläin sateessa oot” and “Loit elämälle pohjaa”. Late-decade collaborations with arranger-producer Veikko Samuli yielded further successes such as “Keskiyön aikaan” and “Ollaan lähekkäin”. More information...
