Scapa Flow‘s a prog-folk band from Helsinki, Finland. It was originally formed in 1976 by the saxophonist/flautist Ismo JÄRVINEN, though some occasional performances had been held under different setups before this time. SCAPA FLOW would mostly perform their own songs, but also some known compositions from for example J.S.BACH while touring around Finland. A big part of their music is composed folk-rock, though there is always room left for improvisation. The band concentrates very much on singing, as four of all the members would sing together or take turns on the album.

The first solid line-up for the band in 1978 included Timo SEPPÄNEN (guitar), Asko AHONEN (bass), Olavi KYLLÖNEN (drums) and Kari JAKSOLA (keyboards) with JÄRVINEN. Later on KYLLÖNEN was replaced by Leevi LEPPÄNEN (PEKKA POHJOLA GROUP) and JAKSOLA by Eero KOLEHMAINEN. Before the recording of the first and only album of the band, the singer/flautist Pia-Maria NOPONEN also joined the group.

In 1980 the so far only record ?Uuteen Aikaan? was recorded, and mixed by Lasse RÖNKKÄ. The lyrics were all originally written in English, but were then translated into Finnish for the recording by two outside writers, Seppo PARKKINEN and Esko SALERVO. The record is considered to be of very high quality compared to others recorded at the time, but it still did not receive very much attention.
