What, a woman sings the blues?! Exactly, and she also plays a heartbreakingly dirty slide-guitar, that doesn't have to fear the competition with the "godfathers of blues". Erja Lyytinen meanwhile has become one of the hottest musicians in Finland and could easily have rested on her laurels, but instead of that she appears more bold, creative and eclectic than ever. Her live performances have such a power and authenticity that conjure up a smile even in the beards of the strongest blues traditionalists. Erja plays everything from a Dobro to a slide-guitar, as long as it rocks. But Erja is not only concerned about guitar playing, she wants to tell stories with her songs.
