Tarja Turunen's brother made an album "The sibling relationship has been a strain"
Teo Turunen, 41, wants to stand on his own two feet.
Being addressed as Tarja Turunen's brother has started to annoy the musician from Kitee Teo Turunen.
- I've somehow stayed in Tarja's shadow. The relationship has been a huge strain.
The handsome voiced Teo has just made his first album and a song is available for listen on IL-TV. Teo has done gigs actively since 1992.
- I'm a defender of the dance people but we can play pop if needed.
Teo Turunen has a three-shift work at a thermo plant. He has done many shlager music-competitions and says they've been helpful.
- The musician was taking a back seat for eight years when my family came first.
Teo and Tarja, who is now doing her solo career, are in great terms.
- We meet 2-3 times a year. We have a blast with Marcelo, Tarja's husband. We've also been to Argentina. We always done music together with Tarja, memorable Christmases come to mind first.
Teo was also there for his sister when Tarja and Nightwish had a falling out.
- That was a hard time.
