Wimme Saari (also known as Wimme; born 1959; Kelottijärvi, Enontekiö) is a Finnish Sami yoiker.[1] Wimme Saari combines traditional Sami singing with his own improvisations, usually to a techno-ambient accompaniment by members of Finnish electronic group RinneRadio. Wimme has also appeared on the albums of other bands or musicians, for instance Hedningarna, Nits or Hector Zazou.
