  • Don Johnson Big Band is a Finnish hip hop group from Helsinki, formed in the late 1990s. Their music blends influences from a variety of genres such as jazz and electronic music. Don Johnson Big Band consists of four people: Tommy Lindgren (vocals), Kari Saarilahti (guitar), Johannes Laiho (keyboards) and Pekka Mikkonen (horns). Despite their name, they are not a big band, but instead a mix between rap, hip hop, techno, jazz, blues and rock. Regular featuring artists on DJBB gigs and albums are Juuso Hannukainen (percussion), Tero Rantanen (percussion), Emma Salokoski (vocals), and Teppo Mäkynen (turntables). The name "Don Johnson Big Band" comes from the actor Don Johnson in the series Miami Vice. It was invented as a joke when the band couldn't think of any other name.
  • Don Johnson Big Band on suomalainen hip hop -yhtye, jonka musiikissa on myös vaikutteita jazzista ja muista musiikin tyylilajeista. Yhtyeen nimi viittaa tiettävästi Miami Vice -sarjan näyttelijään Don Johnsoniin.
