Pedaja’s musical journey has taken him from his school basement punk band to the large stages. He told how he “got a kick out of live music” from early age and was drawn to learning guitar and singing while growing up in the small rural town of Rapla, about one hour’s drive from Tallinn. Like most Estonian kids Pedaja sang in the school choir but also took additional singing lessons.

From the loud and noisy beginnings, his music has become more and more quiet. By the time he started to compose himself, he had developed a taste for a mix of ambient, acoustic folk and mellow electronic.

Mick is performing and making music in many different ways. He’s blessed with irreplaceable band (Aivar Surva, Karl Tammaru, Uku Kübar) and his wife Angeelia.

Meanwhile also the dream to compose film music has come true. Pedaja composed the award-winning soundtrack for Martti Helde’s “Scandinavian Silence” (2019) and has gone on to create music for several films and series since then. Mick has already been in collaboration with director Ergo Kuld’s projects and movies like “Talve / What a Heart Says”, “Reetur”, “Tulejoonel”, “Valguses & Varjus” and the last movie “Soo” was in theatres from 2022 February. He is writing also music for theatres, his first pieces were Hargla “Nõid” (Ajateater”) and Baturin “Noor Jää” (Endla). He’s performed on concerts with Kristjan Järvi and orchestras (Baltic Sea Philharmonic and more).

As a musician, Mick is also really into the photography and videography.

Since 2014, He released his first solo EP “Ärgake” (Kaabu Records) and then studio albums. Hingake / Breathe (2016), Avaimus (2018), Pray (2022) and his last “SULA” released on 2023 spring.
