In the update, there is a joint photo of singer Anne Mattila, who is sitting by Mustajärvi and Matti Mikkonen between. Mustajärvi is smiling in the picture and has a hand on Mattila’s shoulder.
Iltalehti reached Anne Mattila, but she did not want to comment on the matter.
Mustajärvi, known as Popeda’s frontman, died on Boxing Day at the age of 69. He was diagnosed with a tumor in October. Later, the musician said in public that he has contracted cancer.
– Cancer’s devil threw a little curveball at the concert plans, but while on sick leave there is plenty of time to write, the singer wrote in November.
