The Finnish musician and singer-songwriter ERJA LYYTINEN is the annointed queen of the slide guitar.
Her melody-rich blues tunes and brawny yowls of guitar are always packed with rocky textures, and have been enthralling audiences across the world for several years. Now’s your chance to experience the live show!
We described her most recent studio album “Smell The Roses” as delivering, “hard-working, no-nonsense boogie blues [that] instantly gut-punches the listener…”

“Going to Hell” from the same album (video shared below) features passionate vocals and an embroidered edge that’s cutting and acidic… the guitarwork is almost Mick Ronson-esque in style. We described the song as, “a step into 1970 and a visit to the Spiders from Mars” when we reviewed the album.
Now, Following the release of her 2024 live CD and DVD album “20 Years of Blues Rock”, and the much-acclaimed “Smell The Roses”, Erja has announced three UK concerts in November 2025 – Bridgewater, Bar Brunell (Nov 13), Tenby Blues Festival (Nov 14), and London, The Half Moon Putney (Nov 18).
