Charismatic and playful accordionista Johanna Juhola conjures a magical world that blends Buenos Aires tango halls with dark Finnish forest landscapes. Laced with both melancholic nostalgia and uplifting exuberance, Johanna’s music is an original blend of contemporary tango and inventive use of electronica. A well-known face on the Finnish music scene, her openening piece commissioned for the 2007 Eurovision song contest was watched by tens of millions around the world. Johanna’s innovative performances with her quartet Reaktori captivate with their musical wizardry and cheeky theatricality.

Juhola has released four solo albums Miette (Texicalli Records 2006), Fantasiatango (Texicalli Records 2010), Fantasiatango 2 (Johanna Juhola Music 2012) and Diivan jäljet (Westpark Music 2018). Johanna Juhola Reaktori has also released a live CD Tango Roto Live (Johanna Juhola Music 2010).

Reaktori features on Johanna Juhola's four latest albums: 'Fantasiatango', 'Tango Roto Live', 'Fantasiatango 2' and 'Shadow of a Diva'.

"Refreshing, different, magical, young, pearl of world music."
"Johanna Juhola has been called one of the most interesting innovators of accordion music in
Finland"
”Johanna Juhola is one of Finland’s most artistically ambitious crafters of contemporary folk music.”
