ABOUT TOMI "Thom" Miinala

Tomi was born into a family influenced heavily by music. He got into drumming because of his father, growing up with easy access to a drum kit, on which he was given permission to practice.

Tomi's musical influences include Radiohead, Dream Theater and Thom Yorke.

Aside from knowing how to drum, Tomi works with drum machines and other bits and pieces of musical machinery, like samplers.

Tomi joined Bottle in 2024, due to growing immensely tired of the MIDI drums in their recordings.

Tomi's favorite song is "The Gloaming" by Radiohead, from their 2003 album "Hail To the Thief."
