Covington Finnish Music Festival honors Johnny Perona

A highlight of the June 27 Finnish Music Festival in Covington was a percussion performance by these young admirers of the late Johnny Perona, Copper Country musician, in whose memory the festival was dedicated (note poster). Accompanying the young "bones" players are Wil Kilpela (right) on accordion, percussionist Randy Seppala (background) and (far left) Oren Tikkanen on guitar. Click on photo for larger version.
