Kadi Vija New album out now!
Join us to celebrate vocal instrumentalist Kadi Vija new album “Tiny Hands Gathering Wonder, The World Becomes Magic”!
The album is a vibrant narrative album celebrating the beauty and complexity of a rainbow family. Jazz vocal artist Kadi Vija shares her journey as a social parent, exploring love, connection, and the unique rhythms of family life.
“The album is a journey through time and imagination. At moments, it feels like sitting at the edge of your childhood bed; at others, you’re caught in the repetitive, numbing rhythm of everyday life. Then suddenly, a breathtakingly tender moment unfolds a landscape bathed in the colors and sensitivity of nature.”
– Laura Malmivaara, actress

Kadi Vija’s New Album Is Arriving at Mustik Motel
We’re proud to welcome Kadi Vija to the Mustik Motel family.
Kadi Vija (b. 1985, FIN/EST) has a long background in vocal jazz improvisation and defines herself primarily as a vocal instrumentalist. Vija’s music explores sounds from modernism, jazz and electronics, as well as a deep fascination with rhythmic variety.
Her forthcoming album, Tiny Hands Gathering Wonder, The World Becomes Magic, is a vibrant narrative journey through the rhythms of rainbow family life. Inspired by her experience as a social parent, Kadi explores love, friendship, and the everyday magic of connection beyond traditional roles.
The first single, “Big Hands, Deep Voice”, arrives August 14th. It’s a tender and resonant opening to the album’s world—where deep empathy and gentle compassion guide the way.
As our label co-founder Jarno reflects:
“Life is always a miracle—and a child’s life, even more so. When you witness your child up close each day, you begin to notice things that might otherwise pass you by as a parent. Moments of deep empathy. Gentle compassion. These are the very paths that could make the world a better place for us all.”
We’re honored to share this journey with Kadi. Stay tuned for more, and mark your calendars for August 14th.
