Story of This World

1941

Saara’s Grandmother, Airi Aalto, and Grandfather, Eeli Aalto, became refugee war children in 1941.

Children were sent from Finland to Sweden for safety during WW2. Save The Children helped Airi cross the border and placed her with a Swedish family, whilst Eeli was escaping bombings in the eastern part of Finland having to leave his home for good.

At 12 years old, Saara Aalto composes and writes her first English language song, ‘This World’.

Saara is inspired to write the song after seeing so many children affected by war, injustice, and famine. She is also inspired by the stories passed down to her of her ancestors growing up as refugee children during war time.

The same year Saara wins a karaoke competition in Oulu, Finland, and the prize is a day in a recording studio to record her own song. She records her song, ‘This World’ (initially called ‘My World’).

1999

2020

With the Covid-19 pandemic shutting down the world, Saara, like many of us, finds herself with a lot of time on her hands.

She decides to go through old memory boxes she hasn’t looked in for many years and rediscovers the recording of ‘This World’. Much to her amazement, all the audio files are in perfect quality, and she knows she has to do something good with the song when the time is right.

2020

With wars and conflict escalating all over the world, Saara feels ‘This World’ resonates today more than ever.

Saara contacts Save The Children with an idea to release ‘This World’ in conjunction with them and to donate all the proceeds to Save The Children to help children all over the world.

Saara’s vision for ‘This World’ is to record a duet with her 12-year-old self, and she contacts her long-time producer Arto Ruotsala to record her new vocals and bring the song up to date.

But because Saara feels that the song is all about looking at the world from a child’s point of view, she decides to invite 10 children to sing it with her. The No Fear Children are born, featuring children singing in their native languages of Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, Swahili, Dutch, French, Tamil, Estonian, Finnish, Czech and Swedish.

At the music video shoot, it is incredible to witness cultures from around the world coming together to do good for children facing adversity.

Meet Saara Aalto

Showgirl and songwriter. Popstar & pianist. There is no one quite like Saara Aalto.

Hailing from the North of Finland, Saara studied singing, piano, composing and dance, shooting to stardom in 2007, coming 2nd in Finlands Got Talent.

An explosive career in Finland soon followed as she reached 2nd place in” The Voice of Finland”, then gave her voice to Princess Anna in the Finnish version of Disneys Frozen, performed in smash-hit musicals Wicked, Jesus Christ Superstar and High School Musical and released five studio albums. 

Saara broke out into the UK pop scene when she entered Simon Cowell’s X Factor UK in 2016. The man himself ecstatically proclaimed, ‘That’s how you do it!’ following her first audition – a breathtaking performance of Sia’s ‘Chandelier’. 

She became runner-up in the competition, and the X Factor UK made Saara a superstar in her homeland.

This truly epic year continued with Saara accomplishing her biggest dreams! Stunning live shows included In My Wildest Dreams, a sell-out 13,500 capacity arena show at Helsinki’s Hartwall Arena, a sell-out 17-date UK arena tour and a sell-out headline show at London’s iconic Hippodrome – plus performances all over the world, including Ireland, Sweden, Spain, Estonia and Kazakhstan.

In 2018 Saara released her international album ”Wild Wild Wonderland”.

Following the release of ‘Wild Wild Wonderland’, Saara became a judge on X Factor Finland, released her debut book ‘No Fear’ in both Finland & United Kingdom and represented Finland, reaching the final of the Eurovision Song Contest with her song” Monsters”.

In 2019 she took on another challenge and competed in one of the UK’s biggest TV shows, Dancing on Ice UK, reaching the final and placing third. After the show’s great success, Saara toured the UK again with a ten-date headline show, ‘An Evening With Saara Aalto’ and released her Christmas album ‘Fairytale’, which included a song Kylie Minogue had written for her ‘Every Christmas Day’.

In 2020 Saara decided to take full control of her career and launched her own record label, “No Fear Music”, and her” No Fear” brand that focuses on self-development, education and culture.

In 2022 Saara stepped into a new adventure by releasing her childhood song This World” with Save the Children to help children worldwide!

With such a unique and versatile artist as Saara, who has performed with legends including Kylie Minogue, Andrea Bocelli, Adam Lambert and Jose Carreras, you never know which direction Saara will take next. But one thing’s for sure…….Get ready for Saara Aalto!
