XL5

XL5 returns to the stage at House of Olaf on Saturday 25.7.2026 - and this comeback is historic because for the first time all six members who have played in the band over the years will perform together.

Founded in 1996, XL5 was the most successful Finnish boy band of the 1990s. The band released two albums - Pedon merkki (1996) and Jäätä ja tulta (1997) - which together sold over 50,000 copies. Their debut single Kaunis peto became one of the decade's biggest Finnish pop hits. The original lineup consisted of Mika Ikonen, Pete Tolonen, Jake Jokivalli, Elo Eloranta and Jami Jaakkola; in autumn 1996 Jami Jaakkola was replaced by Toni "Tontsa" Uotila. XL5 last performed as a five-piece with Tontsa in 1998. Now both versions will take the stage - and all other members together. On Friday 28.11. the band released a new version of their hit Kaunis Peto.
