Following the release of her 2024 live CD and DVD album “20 Years of Blues Rock!”, and her critically acclaimed 2025 studio album “Smell the Roses”, internationally acclaimed guitarist, and singer songwriter Erja Lyytinen is pleased to announce three UK concerts in November 2025 – Bridgewater, Bar Brunell (Nov 13), Tenby Blues Festival (Nov 14), and London, The Half Moon Putney (Nov 18).
Tickets are available here.
To coincide with the news of her UK concerts, Erja has just released a fantastic music video for “Going to Hell”, – the latest single taken from her “Smell the Roses” album. The music video is available to watch below.
“‘Going to Hell’ is one of my favourite songs from ‘Smell the Roses’”, says Erja. “We decided to shoot a music video for the song where a dashing devil wreathed in flame amps up the passion. We had never used fire as an element in our music videos, and that made the video shoot especially thrilling”!
Continues Erja: “The core message of the song comes to life in a visual format. The blues was once thought of as the devil’s music, and that notion is contrasted with the truth of the matter, that no one is superior or inferior to their fellow human beings, even if they’ve managed to convince themselves that they are”.
“So, without further ado, let’s play our way down to Hell”!
Erja’s “Smell the Roses” album is available on CD and vinyl via the official Erja Lyytinen Store. Order the album and various merchandise bundles, including a selection of exclusive “Smell the Roses” t-shirts and tote bag here.
