We are a band and we made this CS profile to help us find accommodation on tour. Desert Rain consists usually of 4, but we might sometimes be more or then less, depending who in our band is available. Our music reflects our core personalities, that is, peace and harmony - of course also with some much needed joyous wild energy.

We are:
- Ville Lähdepolku (Our guitarist and leading figure, age 44)
- Farshad Sanati (Our Santour player and amazing singer!, age 35)
- Alex Lee (Our drummer!)
- Ville Määttä (Our lungs and fingers for flutes, bass and at times for percussions also, age 25)
- Another drummer/percussionist that replaces Alex, if he is not available.

You see, us Villes (Ville1&2) are Finnish living in Finland. Farshad Sanati is Iranian, also living and working in Finland. Alex is British and he is at the moment back in London, where we are eager to meet him and perform with him again!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Clearly we grasp the opportunity to use CS to find accommodation for the time of travels with our band. From our individual interests' point of view, we share the same - that interest for the beauty of a wonderful shared moment with new people. Connection is the word and the phenomenon in the world today, but better yet in person!
But,
we do apologize in advance if we don't have much time to spend with you. But we warmly welcome you to all of our performances!

We don't accept guests with this profile since it is rather challenging - all of us having one's own thing going on and different sleeping arrangements, families and work!
But if you are really looking forward to see us or to play with us, drop us a message and maybe we can find out something!
