Wiki:
"Jukka Tolonen (born April 16, 1952, Helsinki) is a Finnish jazz guitarist. Tolonen became famous as guitarist for the band Tasavallan Presidentti. While making several solo albums and projects he also played on albums Tombstone Valentine (1970) and Fairyport (1971) by Wigwam.
Tolonen is a virtuoso guitarist who is highly respected in his native Finland as well as in Sweden where he has lived for long periods. Among Tolonen's side projects are Guitarras Del Norte, Trio Tolonen, and Jukka Tolonen Band (JTB). He has used many different guitars over the years, such as the Gibson ES-335 and Ibanez Artist. Since the 90's he has used Finnish handmade instruments by Ruokangas Guitars (electric) and Lottonen Guitars (acoustic).
Tolonen contributed to Six Complete (2006), the latest album by Tasavallan Presidentti.
In May 2008 Tolonen was found guilty of stabbing his girlfriend and was sentenced to 27 months in jail for aggravated assault. When released in 2010 he told the media that he was quitting guitar playing due to osteoarthritis. While in prison Jukka Tolonen dedicated his life to Jesus Christ, and in 2011 he released 'Juudan Leijona' ('Lion of Judah'), a CD of traditional Finnish hymns in which he sings and plays piano, occasionally accompanied by other instruments and voices."
