News: ERJA LYYTINEN – UK tour starts 18 March and new album



Pete Feenstra chatted to Erja Lyytinen in March 2016 for Get Ready to ROCK! Radio.  A further interview is available via Mixcloud (September 2017) with tracks from then current album ‘Stolen Hearts’.

ERJA LYYTINEN - The Bullingdon, Oxford, 27 March 2019

Award winning Finnish guitarist Erja Lyytinen will release her new studio album “Another World” on Friday 26th April via Tuohi Records.

The new album offers a new departure musically, reflected in the early single and title track.  As Erja says: “This album is open-minded, curious and empowering.”

The Finnish slide-guitarist completed her 12-date UK tour on 30 March.

Lyytinen’s debut came in 2005 with the blues-based  “Pilgrimage” whilst successive albums have consolidated her blues-rock reputation.  Erja continues: “The whole album is rockier and funkier, with elements of blues, pop, hard-rock, prog-rock…”
