Biography

Wintersun is a Finnish band formed in 2002 by former Ensiferum vocalist Jari Mäenpäa and drummer Kai Hahto from Rotten Sound. Their music combines folk influences with elements of neo-classical power metal. Wintersun released their debut album in 2004 and their sophomore album, Time I, in 2012, both under the Nuclear Blast label.

The band's sound is characterized by technicality, speed, and high melodic content, drawing inspiration from fellow Finnish bands like Amorphis and Finntroll. After an eight-year hiatus, Wintersun returned to the music scene with their second album, continuing to showcase their unique blend of musical styles.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
