Support the Mandolins and Beer Podcast at my Patreon page!My guest this week is Petri Hakala. Petri is an extremely accomplished Finnish mandolin player as well as a scholar and luthier. He doesn’t have a website at the moment but you can buy his music on Bandcamp! Petri has also supplied me with a great list of links with videos, albums he’s done and some of his European mandolin influences which is below:
