Samuli Tapani Putro (born in Helsinki on 21 August 1970) is a Finnish musician, vocalist and songwriter. His family moved to live in Raahe, Turku a short time after his birth. He was a founding member of Zen Café and its lead singer, guitarist and songwriter.

In 2009, Putro composed the music for Mika Ronkainen's documentary film Freetime Machos. His second solo album, Älä sammu aurinko appeared on 16 March 2011 followed by Tavalliset hautajaiset on 24 August 2012. His most recent album Taitekohdassa was released in 2014.
