Edea is a Finnish musical group. The Edea's song lyrics are written in an older form of the Finnish language and speak of old traditions as well. The mysterious runic symbols inscribed on the bows of Viking boats, door posts, drinking vessels, and amulets () as well as the Finnish composer Sibelius are the source of Edea’s music. Edea competed in the Eurovision Song Contest 1998 with their song, Aava. Alexi Ahoniemi plays keyboard and saxophone. He has written lyrics, composed, and arranged for numerous groups. The ensemble also includes Tommy Mansikka-Aho, who plays ethnic wind instruments, and percussionists Samuli Kosminen and Ethiopian-born Abdissa Assefa, who provide underlying harmonies. == Members == ===Marika Krook=== Marika Krook (born October 27, 1972 in Stockholm, Sweden) is Edea’s figurehead and soprano performer; she is a well-known Finnish actress, singer, and dancer.
